Book Reviews of Mona Lisa Overdrive
Book Review: Best sprawl narrative.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of Gibson's most complete novels. Almost seamless from start to finish it flows i a almost organic fashion from one plot point to another. The background on the net star is priceless. Best sprawl narrative of the trilogy.
