Consider Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson. Recommended by 6 sources.
“Cryptonomicon alternates a World War II codebreaking strand with a 1990s tech/cryptography strand, offering long passages of technical explanation, logistical detail, and witty aside. Its useful part is the savoring of technical lore and the odd pleasure of seeing historical secrecy folded into modern digital schemes. Its main limitation is scope: sprawling digressions into math, military procedure, and startup minutiae repeatedly slow momentum. Tone and pace shift often, which rewards patience but frustrates readers who want a tightly focused, character-driven novel.”
