"Figures he's found God, he does. Suppose he has, if you want to look at it that way."

As book number two in the Sprawl series, I read this after finishing Neuromancer. This was a significantly better read for me.

This book showed more of how humanity will continue to change with technology and also how humans perceive and respond to technology. Where Neuromancer lacked the human experience, Count Zero brought it all!

I enjoyed the multiple stories being told and the character development. The characters were likeable and/or relatable. I felt engaged and invested in this story and the characters.

Great book. Gibson always has great a unique take on things and the book really engages your mind.
