The story of a boy named Bobby, a girl named Angie, and the Voodoo gods that unite them. Not to mention plenty of cyberspace action!

Too many other things I'm enjoying more right now. This feels really unfocused in comparison to its predecessor. May revisit.

As the sequel to Neuromancer I was expecting a lot from this book as I had read from other reviews that this was the better book. I have to disagree. This book was really good but I still found myself enjoying Neuromancer more than when I read this. I don't really know how to describe it. 

The book is well written and I found the multiple charcters that intersect eventually really interesting but I still did not enjoy it more than Neuromancer. However, that is not to say that this is not a good book and should be skipped. If you enjoyed Neuromancer you will still enjoy this I am sure of it. 

I cannot wait to read the final book in the series, Mona Lisa Overdrive, as I have heard that the story converges very well and ties all the books in a nice way.
