Fantastic books IMO
Donkbaca:
Neuoromancer by William Gibson. Invented the cyber punk genre. Man, I thought you nerds would be all over that
Donkbaca:
The book was published in 1984. Weren't most books written on typewritters then? :dunno
I think it's pretty good. I enjoyed his other books, but this one is his best
GibsonRiddler:
Starship Troopers was good. The movie didn't do it justice.

Neil Gaiman is an excellent author. Funny thing is, a few years back when I was in Wisconsin, I lived in the same podunk town as he did (Menomonie, WI.) If you knew what he looked like, you would see him pop up from time to time. I once saw him in Walmart looking blender and small appliances.

I did finally pick up a copy of Stranger in a Strange Land that doesn't appear to have been vandalized, so I'll get to read his anti-christian book in its entirety, too!

That book is garbage. Just total crap. And that's coming from an anti-christian. Unless you just have a powerful curiosity about it that must be sated, don't waste your time.
