Bruce Sterling - The Caryatids


While Gibson is still writing interesting novels I am not for sure about Sterling. While this book was OK it seemed more like Sterling using this platform to pontificate about just random stuff. Not a terribly concise novel and really when all was said and done nothing really came together. Oh well. Lots of neat ideas, some interesting characters, and concepts but the title would have suggested all those female
characters would have meant something or the three stories would have strung together to mean something. But it seemed Sterling run out of gas and while his thoughts were thrown out there none of them came together. His Caryatids never held things up (see below).
