Count Zero

William Gibson

Count Zero cover

246 pages · 8/10

Set seven years after Neuromancer. Three narratives – a rookie hacker, a corporate mercenary, and an art dealer – intersect around strange entities haunting the Matrix. The fragmented Wintermute AI has evolved into something resembling voodoo loa.

Review

A bit weaker than its predecessor, and for me personally Gibson’s (deliberately) chaotic writing style manifests even more here - I know some critics might say that it’s on purpose, but I simply don’t like it.
