I had no idea Cyberpunk was inspired by this book. I once listened to it on audiobook when I was on a big binge of Cyberpunk stories a few years back. I'll be honest I don't remember a super amount of it, it sorta merges with the others I listened to then a little bit, but I do remember enjoying it at least. I did like the idea of the orbitals (well I don't if that was reality but you get what I mean..), powerful corporations that live in space rather than bother with Earth, which does feel like a path we could go down.. The "rock war" too intrigued me because I remember I had only just read about tungsten rods possibly being used in space in that way a little while before listening to the book.
I never ended up getting the sequels though, I don't remember even seeing them until now, I think the book ended pretty well from what I remember.
Oh GOD that link preview though!
