Amazingish...

I really did like this book. It was a little boring at first but once you get into it, it is hard to put down.

the future is already here

A beautiful capturing of today as science fiction. Extrapolation zero - we're already here.

Still better than Ghost Stories

Of Gibbson's two most recent novels this one is the better of the two. Ghost Story is just too light weight for me. Good author, a little uneven over the years.

No worries.

To be honest the first of Gibson's novels set in present made me a little nervous. Would he be able to keep the hard edge and tech mix that I was so fond of in his early works. No worries, this was his best since virtual light if not one of his best. Well done. think of that...Gideon's Fall: When You Dont Have a Prayer, Only a Miracle Will Do

A Virtual Thriller With Virtually No Thrills

The protagonist is interesting, the plot less so. The author knows his stuff where personal communication technology and, to a lesser degree, marketing communications are concerned. But the novel remains a somewhat lukewarm love story in "cyberthriller" clothes.
