A corporate mercenary wakes in a reconstructed body, a beautiful woman by his side. Then Hosaka Corporation reactivates him, for a mission more dangerous than the one he's recovering from: to get a defecting chief of R&D-and the biochip he's perfected-out intact. But this proves to be of supreme interest to certain other parties-some of whom aren't remotely human.©1986 William Gibson (P)2009 Audible, Inc.

The cyberpunk prose, understated and individual stories weaving together in a complex tapestry of larger themes and ideas, and an incredible vocal performance, one of the best audiobooks I’ve ever listened to!

Gibson is amazing at filling out his world and not using same characters each time. the nods to neuromancer was great and the new characters felt as real as molly and chase did.

another great cyberpunk voyage.

I've read and listened to this novel many times and it's an amazing experience each time. I won't review the book but will only say that Jonathan Davis is quickly becoming one of my favorite narrators. His performance here was outstanding. The pacing and tone of each line read really set the mood and was very well done. He also did Mona Lisa Drive which was another great performance.

I hope they redo the Neuromancer one with Jonathan Davis not only for completeness and consistency but because I'd love to hear him do a reading of it. Neuromancer is coming up on its 30th anniversary, so please make it happen!

Absolutely amazing!

Count Zero is the second book in Gibson's Sprawl Trilogy - Neuromancer being the first. Count Zero is not as hypnotic and it's predecessor. It's a not a direct sequel to the Neuromancer but is a story set in the same world 7 to 8 years after the events told in the first novel. At it's heart, Count Zero is crime drama with elements of a action-spy story. There are some downright cool crossover moments where events from the first novel are referenced and a supporting character or two make a short appearance in the story. I didn't enjoy Zero as much as Neuromancer because a big part of the fun of these books is learning about and exploring the world Gibson's characters inhabit. Zero retains much of the flavor of Neuromancer but is an entity in and of itself; worth a read.
