The world is chaotic and entrancing. The plot hurtles through it at speed, twisting this way and that, but never getting lost.
It’s incredible to realize that Gibson came up with so many of these ideas and imagery in 1984. The foundational text of cyberpunk. You can see so many themes and ideas stemming from this.
Case is a complex main character but ultimately you root for him. Like seeing a friend make some bad decisions. Molly is a tragic terminator, both intimidating and sympathetic. Armitage, Wintermute and Peter are all ominous antagonists. There are a host of other amazing characters who make the world rich and leave lasting impressions.

The characters aren't all that interesting, might've only liked two of the characters. The plot is interesting with how it's set up that when it was reaching the end it felt very anti-climantic? It wasn't a horrible ending but it seemed too abrupt for me personally.
Still worth reading though if you're into dense sci-fi that has classic cyberpunk vibes all over it.
