Very nicely pictured and colored, I felt it properly caught the late 80s idea of how the future will look. Sure, most of it didn't end up quite like WG imagined, but the visually impressionistic approach of The Grim Cyber-Future is nicely presented. It's a shame the book doesn't cover the complete novel.

I had no idea I would end up loving this book so much ;_____; This is the fourth or fifth time I’ve tried to read it. I used to own a physical copy but could never get into it. I finally started listening to it on audiobook - the Arthur Addison narration specifically - and it pulled me in like the reading experience never had. This book is cinematic in a way that makes it great for an audiobook listen. And if you can find that narration, Arthur Addison does wonderful voices for all of the characters. I’d love to reread this sometime in the future.

I read this for a book club and frankly, that’s the only reason I struck through and completed it. It’s far far out of my comfort zone, the world really made no sense to me and even all the technical words the author used confused me. I don’t know what the point of the whole book was and what happened towards the end.

This is a Hugo/Nebula and many other awards winner, so it’s obviously a me problem. But if you are a reader like me who loves fantasy and has just started to explore the sci-fi genre, I would not recommend this book.
