Negative Positive
Title: (cyberpunk) + (beat) = conventional poo
Review: This book was recommended to me, heightening my disappointment. Yet further proof why I must trust no one. I guess even cyberpunk has its own set of cliches. Read this book and fly into every one of them. So Noon read Shampoo Planet et al,...Kool-Aid Acid Test, and digs Burroughs, etc. What you get is an unimaginative, recycled verbal montage of quirky characterizations, boring drug experiences, and an ill-conceived plot--all from someone who's never lived the dream. Yawn. For every Samuel Coolridge and William Gibson, there are approx. 3,582 Jeff Noons.
