charitably, insanely so, the Stephenson books are supposed to be "what happens after the ending is extremely obvious and is an exercise for the reader to derive". I think this is bad but it's what he does

e.g. diamond age, the protagonist's surrogate mum gets rescued from the computational sex orgy so the unrestrained nanotech Seed program never gets compiled. this is presented as a very abrupt stop in the action, leaving any normal reader completely dissatisfied

the baroque cycle had some epilogues which was nice but the actual plot crescendo was also pretty dense and abrupt

yeah, he really sucks at anything past like the first act of a novel. it's like he spends all of his creative energy in the first 50 pages and then he just writes to hit the word count/plot points. when i was a young nerd he was all the rage, but i still think snow crash < neuromancer and i will stick to that until they bury me.
