fusrofabulous's review against another edition
The world is cool as hell, but the book is written in a style that was very hard to get past. I understand it's intentionally meant to give off a specific Noir vibe, but man does that vibe suck.
It felt like none of the characters were going to grow or be really challenged at all. Like Gibson decided "this is Case, this is always Case he is a cool dirt boy" and then stuck with it.
