I think I just picked that up at a thrift store. I'm in the middle of his book, "Anathem" and I'm loving every minute of it.

Can you synopsize Seveneves without spoiling it? There are two books in the way before I get to it, but I'm lovin' me Stephenson right now.

Sorry, I'm on my phone so this will have to be brief. Seveneves is a novel in three parts, all three of which is spurred by the catastrophic destruction of the Earth's moon. The three parts could be summarized as: the exodus of Earth, the initial plight of the survivors and the eventual return to Earth.
