I finally finished this book. and I have to say it's one of the more difficult reads I�ve done recently. It doesn't help that I read it in spurts. Backtracking severely at times and managed to lose it for a month before I started reading it again.
Late 1800's/early 1900's… I forget the exact year it's set in but this book is so chock full of lingo that it had me reaching for a dictionary ... and it's so stuffed and brimming with oh so much lush detail that I�m not sure where the plot wandered off to or if it even matters that much. :P
and then i found this place http://www.sff.net/people/gunn/dd/ and it all made sense ;)
I started re-reading it as soon as I finished it.
If you�re interested in �cyberpunk� themes and what not, I�d pick this book up and check it out.
