"Neuromancer" by William Gibson was a major dissapointment, particularly given the fact that it achieved such a lofty status by winning the Hugo Award. The characters are flat and uninteresting and without that connection the story holds no interest for me. I did love the pacing, wordsmithery, and richly described locales and backdrops but without human interest that's not enough to carry the story. Que sera sera!

    I agree with everything you said. I went into this book with lofty expectations, but was flatly disappointed. It didn't hold my interest well.
