joeyh reviewed Zero History by William Gibson
Review of 'Zero History' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
Wow, the first William Gibson that I have been unable to finish. Stalled with 100 pages to go.
I respect Gibson wanting to move beyond cyberpunk. But leaving behind the obsession with unique objects, while taking out all the interesting stuff, did not work for me. Unique hand-crafted cyberspace deck that a protagonist uses to live a life on the edge? Interesting. Uniquely strange diorama created by an AI in a satellite? Interesting. Unique underground brand of designer jeans? Uninteresting.
