I've said that before too, like I would love a novel that's just about the pizza delivery side of things, he crammed so much fascinating backstory into that one chapter, then the book completely changes direction and never looks back. That whole sequence with all the crazy technology and just the tone in general was just so badass.

Don't get me wrong, the rest of the book is pretty awesome too, but that first chapter is wild just on its own.
