4.0 out of 5 stars classic cyberpunk Jan 30 2007
By M. P. Hills - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Reading Metrophage was like re-discovering cyberpunk fiction all over again. He channels noir writers just like Gibson does in Neuromancer, but also drops in some sweet art history and quite respectable tech-extrapolations just like Sterling circa Holy Fire and street pomo theory, a la Zeitgeist.
5.0 out of 5 stars I love Richard Kadrey Dec 14 2012
By Stefanie Hines - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I loved this book. I read it after reading the Sandman Slim Books and Butcher Bird( my favorite novel of the last 2 years) and I loved it! Richard Kadrey's writing is so descriptive and interesting I find myself always wishing for more and more!

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but Neuromancer is far better April 18 2002
By Anthony J Ceci II - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
once again, a dystopic future where technology replaces morality, etc. etc. etc. It's a fun romp, a good read, but the Zen buddhist ending is VERY heavy handed, whereas Neuromancer's Zen buddhist ending is rather enlightening (just like a Zen buddhist ending should be!;)

So should you rush out and overpay for a copy? Only if you like collecting books and/or are a cyberpunk completist.

Should you read it? yeah, its pretty good.
