William Gibson has created a rich, detailed, and vivid near-future, populated with uncomfortably realistic characters..an amazingly complex novel. Some will enjoy it as a fast-paced, exciting adventure; others will claim it's actually a very subtle, clever mystery; still others will see it as a thought-provoking social discourse...."Neuromancer" is a MAJOR NOVEL. It is difficult to compare it to other works for the simple reason that it really is new, and different... "A flashy tour of a remarkably well-visualized future..Gibson manufactures wild details with a virtuoso's glee...an impressive new voice!" Review from Newsday
