Timeless
4 stars
I've somehow never really read any cyberpunk type sci-fi. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this.
Mindblowing also was how much of an influence this book has been on the genre, and how many of the concepts were so ahead of Gibson's time.
The story was relatively basic, but given everything else I don't think you can complain. I'd love to have read this when I was younger before so many of the tropes in the book were plastered everywhere.
I think I'll try some other classic sci-fis that are often mentioned in the same breath as Neuromancer soon.
