William Gibson
Do you ever find it annoyign when an author doesn't release a new book for ages and ages to the point where you stop watching for one?
I only found out yesterday (by accident, I was browsing in Waterstones) that Gibson wrote a followup to Virtual Light!
On top of that I proved I'm a sucker for marketing. When I went to pay for it I saw the bestseller list (right by the till) had a new Grisham and had to have that as well. I didn't mean to spent £20

No watch Final Destination II!
It's so funny. Better than the first, perhaps.

What?? Voyager was a trillion times better then DS-9 especially after they killed of Jadzia
Though I've never followed any of the startrek series, only watched when nothing else was on...which happens a lot with these crap channels we have.
Okay I think I'm gonna watch a couple of old Farscape I've got lying around,
later
/edit/
I dl-ed some Enterprise episodes from kazaa...and man that must the be the worst startrek ever, borrrrrring. Watched one entire episode that revolved around a frigging dog

I wrote my dissertation on his thoughts and theories of how Cyberspace is portrayed without having ever read one of his books.

I read a quarter of Neuromancer then decided I didnt like it. I dislike cyberpunk in general though.
