>> he former US soldier in this article even sounds a bit like Gibson's character Armitage from Neuromancer.

I just started getting into Sci-Fi (particularly dytopian worlds) and my Dad recommended this book as a "must read".

I'm halfway through it and love it so far.

The entire "Revelation Space" series is excellent too, if that one grabs you. :)

The trilogy was formative for 14 year old me.
