The weakest of the sprawl trilogy, although still entertaining and tightly written. Does not have the same level of hallucinatory Burroughs-esque prose prose. Turner seems to be a bit of a blank -- he feels a bit like Armitage from Neuromancer, some.one who has been assembled from parts and does not have a real personality (as he was assembled physically)/ Also the Voodoo stuff feels a bit thin, and feels like some odd intrusion into the story, It is not fleshed out enough nor integrated enough into the rest of the story ( ) Like the preceding Neuromancer, William makes you make some effort to keep up, and once again, it's effort well repaid. Adding insult to injury, this is the second copy i've tried of this book and they've both been rather badly edited. I'm not sure whether the original book is like that or if it's the fault of the copying it over into ebook format. Anyway, i'll judge it on the idea that the original doesn't have all the punctuation and grammar faults and judge it as a damned good book, because, for all it's faults in that area, it was well worth muddling through and making the effort for a really good story and characters. Other thing to note: don't expect to begin where you left off with Neuromancer either, because you won't be. Instead you'll be thrown around here there and everywhere in between with general hints and a few characters from Neuromancer popping up and/or in or maybe just getting a mention in passing. Anyways, all is good and i'm straight into Mona Lisa Overdrive. La historia tiene lugar 8 años después de lo sucedido en Neuromante. Turner, un mercenario profesional, es encargado de la extracción del científico Mitchel de la empresa Maas para llevarlo a la competencia, la Hosaka, otra empresa de investigación de biochips. Al mismo tiempo, Marly, una marchante de arte caída en desgracia, es contratada por un excéntrico y misterioso multimillonario, Josef Virek, para encontrar al autor de una serie de obras de arte. Para cerrar el círculo, en Barrytown, cerca de los Proyectos, Bobby Newmark, alias Conde Cero, experimenta un Wilson que casi lo mata al conectar en la matriz usando un bioware prestado por Dos-por-Dia, un traficante de soft de los Proyectos. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
