The origin of the term ‘Cyberspace'. Interesting but strange in a pleasing way. After reading this popular sci-fi novel, I am not dissappointed of course, but doubt that I'll be reading more of Gibson's works for a while...I found it tough to read.
Really enjoyed this followup to Idlewild. I kept “reading just one more section”. Very captivated by it.
Enjoyed this final volume in the story of the post-humans that saved a troubled world from, most probably, themselves. Was expecting different ending, but pleasantly surprised. Like the previous two books, this one also kept me wanting to read just a bit more.
A very gripping story, engrossing to the last page. If I try to describe it, I might give too much away.
Has there ever been a book lying around your office or house
and you have no clue how it got there? Well, this was one of those books. Turns out that it was actually a college ‘required read' of the wife's. So, I just HAD to read it. Not bad. But not great either. I'm sure the movie made this better.
Great work in which Sagan dispells the myths of pseudoscience and encourages skeptical thought and devotion to true science.
Another cyberfantasy from the author of Neuromancer. A good read, but be prepared to re-read a few sections a few times to follow the plot.
Suggested by a good friend as one of her absolute favorites, I thought I would give it a try. Quite nice. A story of Francie Nolan, a gal from turn of the century Brooklyn, who
grows up through some interesting circumstances.
Douglas Adams meets Monty Python over a few pints and
with the help of Agnes Nutter (Witch), Crowley, and Azriel you have the book of Revelations rewritten. Jolly good fun I must say! Yet another recommendation from a good friend, maybe I should ask them for ideas more often.
After a few Pangalactic Gargleblasters I decided to
to begin the journey along with Arthur Dent and Ford Prefect rather than lie in the mud to save my house from the wrecking crew. Ummm... So long and thanks for all
the fish!
