If you like old school cyberpunk, you should feel right at home with Metrophage. Although Jonny Qabbala is a dodgy low-rent drug dealer as opposed to a dodgy netjockey type it most definitely has a similar feel. Crazed rich criminals doing bizarre things to people with drugs, people want Jonny for various reasons. He gets into trouble with body modded gangs, all that sort of noir-punk good stuff is to be found here. 3.5 out of 5
classic cyberpunk

Reading Metrophage was like re-discovering cyberpunk fiction all over again. He channels noir writers just like Gibson does in Neuromancer, but also drops in some sweet art history and quite respectable tech-extrapolations just like Sterling circa Holy Fire and street pomo theory, a la Zeitgeist.
