Publisher's summary

"One of the most visionary, original, and quietly influential writers currently working" (Boston Globe) returns with a brand-new novel.

In William Gibson's first novel since 2014's New York Times best-selling The Peripheral, a gifted "app-whisperer", hired to beta test a mysterious new product, finds her life endangered by her relationship with her surprisingly street-smart and combat-savvy "digital assistant".

Brilliant and insightful vision of the future

So glad I read these before seeing the slightly hamfisted prime series. Gibson’s capture of British character and the concept of the ‘Clept’ is perfect. The black humour behind calling the impending / past collapse the ‘jackpot’ is also perfect. Wish we had someone to step in and help us do what’s necessary to avoid the coming £#!#storm. It’s fun to be able to read about what alternatives might look like. Sadly McCormack’s ‘the Road’ is looking ever more likely. Gibson’s visions of the future are more hopeful, if dependent on tech we don’t have any hope of yet.

the butthurt is real

Brain dead leftists go back in time to change the 2016 election result, prevent Brexit and thus save the world from total destruction. Tedious. This is the audiobook form of a twitter rant that should have been deleted before it was posted. Bootlickers rejoice, this one is for you.
