I read this a few years after it was published and it really threw me. Gibson’s writing connects with my brain in a manner that is a rare and wondrous find. He uses a lot of new terminology, but he provides just enough detail that allows each reader to fashion their own internal construct, and I like that very much. He also presents some very interesting concepts and unique, well developed characters. Like the best books, this left me dazed for a few days after reading it. I have tried to find books that take me to a similar place in my head, and invariably they come up short. I don’t know how it holds up 40 years later.
