Negative Positive
Title: Maybe it was the buildup?
Review: Maybe the rave reviews I heard made me expect too much, but the actual book was kind of a let-down. It just didn't, I don't know, _romp_. Very cool concepts, well executed, but seemed kind of pointless in the end. Maybe I expected him to do something new with the cyberpunk genre when he had really gotten there first. (For a Rucker book that romps and stomps, try _The_Hollow_Earth_.)
Is the review positive or negative?
