  There is a street in my town with this name. I've been tempted to steal the streetsign!

  Oops! Less memorable than I thought. Its concept is, at least: it's close to being the villain of the story, Case its hapless pawn, yet it's also a captive. There are some parts of the plot I do like, even if it's not a draw as a whole.

    The language in Neuromancer was almost impenetrable to me. You just have to accept it and let it wash over you, which creates a unique effect (practically literally, since everyone will have slightly different associations with the neo words). But the result is that the words are less memorable. What sticks are words that we know and somehow are half-associated. In retrospect, the book also teaches a thing about memory.

      I had to read it three times before I recognized there was actually a plot.
