Nymphomation by Jeff Noon

3.0

Nymphomation is a story about lottery fever in Manchester. It's a scifi/mathfi thriller about math majors, gambling, MUDs, computers, mazes, genetics, greed, and luck. The writing style owes something to cyberpunk, but a lot more to Anthony Burgess/A Clockwork Orange. 100% unassailably British. You will either love or hate the writing style. Whether the substance is fulfilling is something that will depend on your personal taste. If you enjoyed Vurt, you will probably enjoy this one. I thought it was a fun read, but in no way was it deep. I found the ending deeply unsatisfying. Also worth noting, for something starting with 'Nympho' this book doesn't really have an awful lot of sex scenes in it.
