Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

a long time ago snowcrash took me off the planet of the banal and announced we were going to land in a new place, excitement and the innards of the future. the trip has not ended yet. this installment from the mind of the prophet continues to respect the reader and lead us into the perils of the next moment of this digital portal. no excuses, no strangers and no end to the twists and turns of a two track path into the unknown but familiar neighborhood under the binary covers of the black and white boundaries of imagination and the people next door.

I continue, at 62, to be in awe of this author. There is no dross, filler or low point in the bit stream of the future he offers. This one, in paticular, homes in on the net and our mania with a granularity that exposes and cherishes this awesome moment in the time of social technology. Done with honor, extreme heroics and depthless demonics cultivate attention and pay off big time!
