Around the end of January I began reading Quicksilver by Neal Stephenson which is part one of a trilogy he calls The Baroque Cycle. Five months later I have finished its 916 pages. I immediately began reading The Confusion which is part two. It only runs 815 pages. I bought it when it was new on the stands in April. The System of the World, according to Amazon.com is due out on October first and will span 944 pages. For now my goal is simply to be done with them by the end of the year.
