It's a great book. What are you smoking
- eru 2y agoThe plot is a bit silly (and full of holes), the characters are one-dimensional, the sex scenes are gratuitous, etc. I still liked reading it twenty years ago, but I wouldn't do it again. There's better science fiction and also better cyberpunk available. Not to mention other genres.
- cubefox 2y agoWhat's better cyberpunk in your opinion?
- eru 2y agoGhost in the Shell, definitely, both manga and anime (but avoid the live action movie and the weird recent CGI show set in the US). 'The Diamond Age', perhaps, if you still count that as cyberpunk. 'Snowcrash', though I have some reservations about some parts of it. 'Cyberpunk: Edgerunners' is pretty good, too. There's some good cyber-punk-ish games like 'System Shock' and others. Don't see this as a comprehensive list. It's just what I had at the top of my head, so no guarantees it's even what _I_ think is best, just what I could remember quickly.
