Books Reading Tonight: William Gibson

Posted by Alison Hallett on Wed, Jun 4 at 4:01 PM

Duuude.

William Gibson is at the Clackamas Town Center tonight, reading from his 2007 book Spook County, now out in paperback. Anybody read it? I haven’t read him since Neuromancer when I was 12, but that book sure is cool.

Why the fuck is Gibson at the Clackamas Town Center and not Powells?

I know you've got some nerds on your staff, get them to comment on Sci-Fi authors.

Spook Country is good...many of those yummy esoteric sentences... but Pattern Recognition, the novel before it, is one of my all time favorite Gibson books...check it out!

I agree, there's a reason he's out at Clackamas for this one. It's not great, but Pattern Recognition IS Great!!
