Anyone here read Neuromancer? What are your thoughts /lit/? I liked the almost alien feel of the future, the whole novel really confusing you with its language and style. It's certainly interesting how influential Neuromancer actually is, coining words like cyberspace and the matrix, predicting the prevalence of mega corporations and the internet. I actually only came across it because it was mentioned in the blurb of my edition of Dune, boasting that Dune had come before it. Overall it really is a terrific book, and one that I wish I'd read earlier.
