Content warning Spoilers for book one
The end of book one started going deep into a lore for this universe that I did not begin to expect, this book doubles down on that and starts to paint a deep problem in the universe. One that’s going to be a lot of fun to discover. Can’t wait for the next one.
It's a fun adventure but the depth of the universe keeps increasing! I didn't even realize it was a slow burn, the flame just goes up really high!
The previous book from the point of view of Zoe. Well told and a good reminder that you can excuse any retcon with teenagers not telling parents the whole truth.
In all seriousness it must have been written at the same time. Pages cut from the previous book perhaps. Which leads it to fit very well in the series.
Lots of fun and a good button to the series.

I listened to this book with a sinus infection so maybe I missed some of the charm, but there are not one but two exposition characters constantly asking what's going on, and they're abosulty necessary to keep the story straight. And are often apologized to because nobody has any idea what is gong on or why people are going places and doing things. There are narrative reasons for all of this, but it's a big glamor show with no real impact. In fact the last 30% of the book could have not included the protaganist and it would have gone exactly the same way. While we got flashy fights and over the top stunts with the main character keeping a stiff upper lip and going along for the ride, I still can't tell you why.
It's a narrative full of "and then" and no "there for" or "but".
Awesome characters, …

Awesome characters, great scifi ideas, I still love the series and will read book 3 when it comes out, but it could have skipped the Gibson "heist admit chaos" crescendo since the heist had no payoff what soever.
Depending on her veteran brother's benefits in a city where jobs outside the drug trade …
A wonderful world to visit, a classic Gibson story that leaves you gasping "that escalated quickly"
