Title: Count Zero (Sprawl Trilogy Book 2) Pdf
A corporate mercenary wakes in a reconstructed body, a beautiful woman by his side. Then Hosaka Corporation reactivates him, for a mission more dangerous than the one he’s recovering from: to get a defecting chief of R&D—and the biochip he’s perfected—out intact. But this proves to be of supreme interest to certain other parties—some of whom aren’t remotely human...
Sex, drugs and rock and roll. The perfect cyber punk. Gibson is up there with Asimov, Dick, Clarke, and Herbert. His projections into the future are disturbingly accurate for being written in the 80s. His frenetic writing style also matches the adrenaline that's pumped into the plot of this book. If you're a sci-fi cyberpunk fan with a tilt towards multiverses, biotechnology, multi-threaded plots and the ilk, then this is the book for you.This is the second of the Sprawl trilogy with Neuromancer preceding Count Zero and Mona Lisa Overdrive coming after. You don't have to read Neuromancer first, but it definitely helps set the stage for the type of world that Gibson immerses you in. Very much looking forward to reading Mona Lisa Overdrive next.Also, if you're deciding between this and Neal Stephenson (Snowcrash) I'd highly recommend the Sprawl trilogy instead.Kindle edition is typically worthless trash & ruins the story, buy an actual book instead As per usual, half the punctuation is missing because of crappy OCR, but even worse, every single one of the full line breaks which indicate a scene change are systematically removed. So you read a line of dialogue and then the very next line is being said hours later, or in a different frame of reference, etc., and doesn't make sense until you think about it a minute and realize that there used to be a visual indication of the frame shift which has been removed because Amazon churns out shoddy product and charges full price for it.Better than Neuro Give you mind an ass-kicking!I don't overuse the word 'literally', like most people, but literally every second sentence your mind boggles at the transcendent quality of the writing, and you think "How did he do that? He's done it again!"The continual deployment of signifiers of provenance leaves something for everyone, especially of course the Japanese. (Though Melbourne, Australia gets another mention, as the terrestrial base of the Tessier-Ashpool clan. 🙂)There's more of space and cyberspace than in NM; and true tech. predictions aplenty.I'm really looking forward to 'Overdrive', now; though other reviewers have indicated 'Zero' is the best, if you 'get' it, and was Gibson's favourite from the trilogy.Jack in!
