Seriously, someone please go look at my thread in the subforum and give me an opinion?
I need to reread Neuromancer, really. That was such an amazingly good book...

Don't worry, Sanzo, I'm the same way...
@La Belle — Yes, what kind of book is it?
@Celest — I'm still looking through the Photobucket gallery. I'm on dial-up, so just cool it. wink

ASDF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT NEUROMANCER IS ABOUT?
It's like... epic! I can't really explain it, so let me go find one that someone else did.
EDIT: Synopsis
The book centers on Case, a former computer hacker who makes his living by breaking into security systems. Caught stealing from his employers, Case is rendered physically unable to withstand the rigors of access to the worldwide computer net. Unable to work, he welcomes suicidal thoughts, entering into deals that can only go bad. Willing to do anything for the chance to work again, he turns to a mysterious figure named Armitage, and by so doing begins a journey out of the gutters of 21st century Tokyo and into an ever-expanding world of multinational intrigue. Armitage pays off Case's debts, repairs his neural damage, and places him under the protection of Molly, a professional killer. As Case progresses through his assignments with Molly and a range of others enlisted by Armitage, he becomes aware of larger forces working to control his activities. Ultimately, Case realizes that it is Neuromancer, a far-reaching artificial intelligence, that he has been working for. The opus ends with Case's realization that he has been controlled by the very technology he uses.
Only it's way more awesome than it sounds.

JDatE is sci-fi based, with a huge hint of video game culture.-La Belle Isolde
