I read it for the first time this year too! Really enjoyed it and I hope it doesn't get butchered in the series.

Between it and Snow Crash... so much of what VC has been spent on.

It’s interesting to consider what makes a story age. Before reading Treasure Island, I expected it to feel so dated, but IMHO, it’s a great read—even 142 years after its release. It also defined a genre and inspired many similar works, yet still felt fresh to me. Anyway, I love both stories. Could Gibson have created a sci-fi novel that aged even better?
