| | 1. |  | Neuromancer
from Ace Hardcover
Price: $16.50
Customer Review:
Okay, now I understand what all the fuss is about. Gibson creates a vivd and engrossing world, entirely believable despite being so fantastic, and does so with a daring, sharp prose style that makes no apologies for bowling forward and leaving slow readers behind. He never holds you by the hand.... more info

| | 2. |  | Spook Country
from Berkley Trade
Price: $10.20
Customer Review:
This is a bad book; boring, pedantic and most damning of all, behind the times. Gibson has had a long slow fall since the heady and exciting days of Neuromancer. He may have hit bottom with this book so I suppose we can hope that he will bounce back with his next one?
Come on Will, write like... more info

| | 3. |  | Pattern Recognition
from Berkley
Price: $7.99
Customer Review:
You walk with the protagonist as she tries to figure out who her mysterious employer is and what her real assignment might be; you are variously helped and threatened--sometimes by the same people--and things are rarely only what they appear to be.
More than that, this young woman has a... more info

| | 7. |  | Virtual Light
from Spectra
Price: $7.99
Customer Review:
This book has almost nothing to do with virtual reality, and left me feeling somewhat ripped off. All dystopia, no VR. And he named it Virtual Light!
If you're interested in a good VR read, check out Tad Williams's Otherland series instead. Much, much more entertaining. Gibson is sadly... more info

| | 9. |  | All Tomorrow's Parties
from Berkley
Price: $7.99
Customer Review:
First of all, don't get me wrong: the "Sprawl Trilogy" (Neuromancer/Count Zero/Mona Lisa Overdrive) is 5-star stuff and still holds up 25 years after it was written. That said, I can't believe this is the same author, because All Tomorrows Parties is a mess on multiple levels.
I read this one... more info

| | 10. |  | Burning Chrome
from Eos
Price: $11.16
Customer Review:
Gibson's writing marks a turning point in the mood and themes of contemporary Sci-fi (see "The Gernsback Continuum"). Some very interesting, and very dark, stories. A great, quick read.
