Turner, corporate mercenary, wakes in a reconstructed body, a beautiful woman by his side. Then Hosaka Corporation reactivates him for a mission more dangerous than the one he's recovering from: Maas-Neotek's chief of R&D is defecting. Turner is the one assigned to get him out intact, along with the biochip he's perfected. But this proves to be of supreme interest to certain other parties--some of whom aren't remotely human. Bobby Newmark is entirely human: a rustbelt data-hustler totally unprepared for what comes his way when the defection triggers war in cyberspace. With voodoo on the Net and a price on his head, Newmark thinks he's only trying to get out alive. A stylish, streetsmart, frighteningly probable parable of the future and sequel to Neuromancer
It takes a while until the suspense eventually builds up. Otherwise, a great cyberpunk read, but with less cyber than Neuromancer had.

En este caso nos encontramos con tres protagonistas y tres historias que a priori no tienen nada que ver ni entre ellas ni con los sucesos de Neuromante, pero que luego, poco a poco van encajando como las fichas de un puzzle; y aunque nos dejemos algún cabo suelto creo que en este caso la historia no es tan confusa como en el primer libro, y aunque también calla mucho no me resultó tan caótica como él.
