Everything depends on taste but I love Neuromancer, it's really good at building a complicated world that isn't overburdened and I find the notion that it is "boring" kind of crazy! It almost reads like a thriller. Immediately one of my favorite books when I picked it up. It's certainly of our time, one of those books that you won't believe was written when it was. And it doesn't really feel dated, we might still be heading towards the world it portrays, hard to say... haha
- 0xdeadb00f 7y agoThanks for the reply. I read Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, by Philip K. Dick and had almost the exact experience you describe with world building. I'll definitely give Neuromancer a read when I finish the three or so books I've started but not finished (it's not an issue of boredom - I'm just very busy at the moment).
