Hello SF-fans,
Finished re-reading William Gibsons Sprawl Trilogy and this is the judgment:
Neuromancer: 5/5
Count Zero: 4/5
Mona Lisa Overdrive: 3/5
I think you can see that Gibson was overwhelmed by the intial success and eventually got tired of the concept.
After the initial sprawl trilogy, in my opnion, he moves further and further away from his roots. Good for attracting new readers, but for fans of his early work, like me, horrible.
But I can understand that. It seems the only authors who choose to stay within the field of their original success are english detective authors. ;)
I've read some of Gibsons later works, and some of it is ok, but not even close to the grittiness and darkness of the originals. So caveat emptor, you computer oriented "punk" readers, stick with the old stuff.
