Really wanted to like this book more. I was intrigued by the premise of the combination of drugs/virtual reality, but the story went in directions I didn't care much for. Styled with lots of in world slang, which I was into but went a bit overboard after a while. Tech side a little dated, fitting for when published in the 90s though. If anyone has suggestions for books that deal with perceptions of reality and/or addiction please let me know, I'm still needing that itch scratched as Vurt didn't do it.
