WOW. I know it's critically-acclaimed but I didn't know it was bordering on classic! I haven't seen the movie of this, mainly because I do plan to read this in the future but since I'm not much of a science fiction reader, I've been pushing it back. I might try this on audio though. Awesome review and the fact that you gave this 5 stars, well, I know I can NOT read this one.
