Reader comments
The last part of the "Sprawling City Trilogy", the first part "Neuromancer" started the story, the second part "Count Zero" expanded the world view, and the third part continued the story of the first part from another angle under the expanded world view. The disadvantage is that the plot is weak. The advantage is that the artistic conception is excellent, and the confusion, loneliness, and psychedelia of the cyber world are displayed very well. We readers, like the protagonists in this story, can only grasp the tip of the iceberg of information in confusion, being affected by god-like artificial intelligence, and our destiny is forever controlled by the boundless data...
The plot of this book is so exciting! I especially like two characters in the book. One is the humble girl Mona, whose struggle on the edge of life and death made me very worried; the other is the white girl Shirley, whose appearance always brings surprises. Moreover, the setting of cyberspace in the story is very novel, which opened my eyes. All in all, this book is well worth reading.
