For Gibson, the nature of the quest object is almost beside the point it merely serves as a spark for a series of cleverly orchestrated confrontations and interesting meditations about the world and where it’s headed. i.e., cyberspace-creating a more nuanced and up-to-date relationship between the virtual and the real.
Gibson reinvents the concept he made famous in his landmark SF novel, Neuromancer Told from three third-person perspectives, the story concerns a journalist backed by a mysterious Belgian industrialist, a young Cuban-Chinese go-to guy from a secretive clan of criminals, and a junkie fluent in Russian, who get caught up in a search for a mysterious shipping container. Robertson Dean’s deep, soothing tones anchor this post-9/11 thriller, a follow-up to Pattern Recognition
