Definitely a fun read. If you're into cyberpunk and neo noir sci fi, this is probably up your alley. I've heard rumors that this was a key source of inspiration for both The Matrix and Johnny Mnemonic, and the correlation is obvious from the first chapter. It's a little hard to follow in places, but the fog feels intentional and it leaves a lot of room for the reader to fill in the gaps and make the world more personally immersive. It's certainly not a mind blowing experience but it scratches the techno futurist itch really nicely.
