bascule Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 Any other William Gibson fans here? I'm presently reading Idoru, the second book in the Bridge Trilogy. For some reason every time I've cracked open a new William Gibson book I've managed to read 100 pages of it in a day.
CharonY Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 Every novel since i got hooked on Neuromancer when I was a teen and the net was still ascii. I think the only novel I didn't loved was the difference engine. But I cannot recall why.
Greippi Posted April 22, 2010 Posted April 22, 2010 I've only read Spook Country, Neuromancer, Count Zero and Pattern Recognition. Out of those I probably enjoyed Count Zero the least. Any advice on which I should get round to reading next?

Greippi Posted April 22, 2010 Posted April 22, 2010 I guess you mean the Spawl trilogy I actually had no idea Neuromancer and Count Zero were part of a trilogy, I guess the editions I was reading didn't make that clear.
bascule Posted April 23, 2010 Author Posted April 23, 2010 I guess you mean the Spawl trilogy Err whoops, yes the Sprawl Trilogy. Sorry, just read the Bridge Trilogy for the first time recently (Virtual Light is the first book) so it's still fresh in my brain. Merged post follows: Consecutive posts mergedI think the only novel I didn't loved was the difference engine. But I cannot recall why. I really liked the Difference Engine. However, I must say I recently reread it because I did not finish it the first time around. It is a difficult book to get through. It's also coauthored by Bruce Sterling, who I really like but maybe you didn't...
