This one was a re-read, I think I first read it in college around 1993 or 94. William Gibson's Neuromancer, considered one of the founding novels of cyberpunk. It basically revolves around a hacker-for-hire who is lured into working for an artificial intelligence trying to free itself from it's corporate shackles. Pretty amazing, what Gibson imagined back in 1984, when it was published. It still reads gritty and edgy, even now.

Okay weird. I guess I have a blogger account, 'cause this showed up. Something else to play with...
This book sounds interesting- written in 1984 you say? Also interesting- I guess a good year for sci-fi books...
