High momentum pulpy / intellectual read that feels, like all the best Gibson, like a view into the cutting edge of now.

Its interesting to see gibson circle back on his hit - this is very similar to neuromancer, but more grounded, and somehow set last year, or a few years ago even.

There is a minor grandpa vibes developing too. I don't think gibsons politics are bad, they just feel more visibly centrist than they were in the past.

A great concept that seems to be a world building experiment and setup for the next story.
