One of the best cyberpunk novels you'll ever read. Great narration, great story, Williams is a poet in this action packed novel. Right up there with Neuromancer.

I try to keep an open mind when listening to a book and then I’m not going to lie the pacing of this one almost had me not listen to the rest of it but it actually did catch up pretty well. There are some descriptive parts that I think could have been left out and you’ll know when you hear them but overall a great not so out of this world story!

Great listen
