And -like my Cube- this is now something of a period piece, but an excellent one at that. Live the near-future, late 1990s style. Lovely narration, too.
I'm sure there are people out there who appreciate William Gibson's atmosphere-intensive style of writing, but not me. I found it hard to concentrate on the book, as I couldn't tell the plot from the imagery. I had to eject halfway through the first disc because I kept going to the previous track.
I really got sucked into this book, more then I thought. A little slow to start but Gibson's descriptions are amazing. Well worth a listen, perhaps females will like it more then men, I can see that, but any fan of Gibson's will enjoy this. Not recommended for readers new to Gibson's work.
In my opinion, women will like this book more than men. I found that there was little going on until the very end. I found it mostly boring and hard to concentrate on.
