A review by vintonole
Spook Country by William Gibson
3.0
W. Gibson is fascinating to read. His books are well written and have interesting characters and descriptions. For most of this book I was uncertain as to what it was really about, but the events were interesting enough for me to continue reading. It does end with somewhat tense and action filled scenes, but probably not as much as the typical action/adventure/thriller would.
The writing does seem toned down and list detail filled as Pattern Recognition or any other typical Gibson novel. After this I just had to read Zero History, which involves many of the same characters. However, if it wasn't a Gibson novel I probably would have skipped both.
