Lucky Wander Boy

Summary: believe the hype!
Review: too smart for the bestseller lists, too hip for the g.m.a book club, lucky wander boy is the real deal, plain and simple. a near-brilliant comi-tragic mini-epic. fans of amis (both martin and kingsley) and gibson should rejoice. it's really that good. oh yeah, and as for the video game stuff - if it puts you off, don't let it. i haven't played a video game since i was twelve and it didn't affect my enjoyment of the novel one bit. can't wait to read his next one!

Summary: High Fidelity for Gamers
Review: Weiss brillianty captures the joys and fixations of gaming. If you grew up in the 80's and spent your afternoons playing Defender in the back of a filthy convenience store, you are going to love this book.
