The Stars My Destination

This was just about a good book for me I don't understand the praise it gets for starting the cyberpunk movement and all that, it barely has that element. But it definitely didn't feel dated. I liked the pacing and the intriguing set-up for the world and the fictional future that it's set in during the prologue. It loses a bit of steam in between due to exposition. Not so much that it was challenging to follow only that the prose felt boring at times.

I would have preferred the conclusion to be just like the rest of the book, just fun and simple instead of trying to be deep and Messianic. A nice bloodthirsty revenge story should have been the way to go in my opinion.
