The novel is awesome. Stephenson builds the story remarkably... and the way he pulls the perspective and world back, further and further, still being grounded by science and philosophy was remarkable. This was simply a great, if somewhat challenging, read.
I'll add a link to an earlier discussion if you're interested.

Anathem rocks. Only problem is, it's hard to describe it without spoiling

As it is a major spoiler for the book, I don't think you'll see it. *NM*

Considering the story as a whole, I strongly disagree that it's a major spolier. *NM*

It ruins the tension of the entire first 1/3 or more of the novel.
