About the book

They set a Slamhound on Turner's trail in New Delhi, slotted it to his pheromones and the colour of his hair.
When the Maas Biolabs and Hosaka zaibatsus fight it out for world domination, computer cowboys like Turner and Count Zero are just foot soldiers in the great game: useful but ultimately expendable.
When Turner wakes up in Mexico - in a new body with a beautiful woman beside him - his corporate masters let him recuperate for a while, then reactivate his memory for a mission even more dangerous than the one that nearly killed him: the head designer from Maas Biolabs says he wants to defect to Hosaka, and it's Turner's job to deliver him safely.

Count Zero is a rustbelt data-hustler totally unprepared for what comes his way when the designer's defection triggers war in cyberspace. With voodoo gods in the Net and angels in the software, he can only hope that the megacorps and the super-rich have their virtual hands too full to notice the amateur hacker with the black market kit trying desperately to stay alive . . .

    Leichter zu folgen und zu verstehen als Neuromancer! Der zweite Teil der Reihe gefiel mir deutlich besser auch wenn es mitunter wieder zu Verwirrung kam. Interessante Figuren und spannende Erzählstränge, die gut zusammengeführt werden! Freue mich schon, den dritten Teil der Reihe zu beginnen!

    Confusing plot that seems random. Lively but unclearly drawn characters. Some nice imagery while other scenes are a total blur. Some interesting ideas while others seem outlandish and totally random. Overall a nice beginning, a confusing middle and an ending that tries to explain it all in two chapters while being completely opaque. After Neuromancer was a vivid and new (but not less confusing) vision of the future, my interest has faded and this was the last Gibson novel for me.
