So, first and foremost, don't go into this thinking it will read like a Gibson novel. It won't. His flavour is still there, how characters talk and act are very similar to his books, but the description and writing isn't. I think Gibson's name got mainly attached to sell the book. He wrote the screenplay, which Pat Cadigan adapted into this novel. This is all her writing, not Gibson's. Once I got that sorted in my head this book was a fun ride and excellent read.
