[CT] When will the American publishers wake up?

[Daniel Moran]

I dislike Gibson for the stuff most people really like -- I hate his 
computer stuff. It's fantasy, and bad fantasy at that.

I do like the way he writes. He's perhaps the 2nd best pure stylist I've 
ever read in the field, after Jack Vance. (Which is where Mohammed got his 
name -- I wanted something that would subtly murmur class for your average 
SF reader.) Anyway, Gibson writes gorgeous prose.
