After being on pre-order for a ridiculous amount of time, I finally have the new Vernor Vinge book, Rainbow's End, and so far, it is total post-cyberpunk hotness (which is mildly amusing, as Vinge's True Names was pre-cyberpunk hotness, with no 'just-cyberpunk' hotness). As is the case with his previous works, the book seems to follow and tie together multiple storylines, where each is so enjoyable that when a switch between them occurs, it is both disappointing and exhilarating crap and rad.
Most of all, I find it inspiring, and that automatically means it wins.
Sci-fi haters need not apply.
