I'm by no means a quick reader and I devoured Neuromancer. I really had zero problem parsing the introduced words. Easier even than A Clockwork Orange.

My experience reading A Scanner Darkly was super painful. Switched to audiobook and quit quickly even then.

Agreed, but the prose are also so beautiful. This is not some garden variety pulp (not that there is anything wrong with pulp)
