The fourth installment in Rucker’s “Ware Tetralogy,” Realware works as a standalone novel — fortunate for me because I haven’t read the other three.

It was somewhat annoying to read words not explained in the text (uvvy, sporehead, wowo, gimmie), but this isn’t unusual in the cyberpunk tradition. It all makes sense after a while.

The story is huge in plot, in words, in characters, and in ideas. It is a fulfilling, immersive journey, likely to be enjoyed by fans of cyberpunk and science fiction.
