Title: Gibson's pretty much done
Review: No more plot, not much character...this is the new Gibson. He langorously winds his way through page after page of description of night clubs, new products, international manufacturing trends...and we, the reader are left standing around while he ruminates. The fresh breath of hip he injected into SF in the mid 80's is very much dated now and labored. He's been imitated so much that he now comes off as a pale imitation of himself.Idoru and All Tomorrow's Parties were much the same. Virtual Light was really his last good book.
