Book Reviews of Burning Chrome
Book Review: A couple very good stories, the others not so good
Summary: 3 Stars
This is an average collection at best as it only has a couple strong stories, with my favorite being Johnny Mnemonic. The other stories are rather weak and combined with the short length of the book make for an average collection. An example of a strong collection would be any Gene Wolfe short story collection. Read one of those and there is no way this collection could ever get more than a four star rating.
Oh yeah, and every time he uses the word chrome I cringed and I am not sure why.
