About this ebook

William Gibson, author of the extraordinary multiaward-winning novel Neuromancer, has written his most brilliant and thrilling work to date . . .The Mona Lisa Overdrive.  

Enter Gibson's unique world—lyric and mechanical, sensual and violent, sobering and exciting—where multinational corporations and high tech outlaws vie for power, traveling into the computer-generated universe known as cyberspace.  Into this world comes Mona, a young girl with a murky past and an uncertain future whose life is on a collision course with internationally famous Sense/Net star Angie Mitchell.  Since childhood, Angie has been able to tap into cyberspace without a computer.  Now, from inside cyberspace, a kidnapping plot is masterminded by a phantom entity who has plans for Mona, Angie, and all humanity, plans that cannot be controlled . . . or even known.  And behind the intrigue lurks the shadowy Yazuka, the powerful Japanese underworld, whose leaders ruthlessly manipulate people and events to suit their own purposes . . . or so they think.

The third entry in the Sprawl Trilogy finds the story has run out of gas. I got fairly far into the book, but had to quit, becuz nothing was happening.

I've read this book countless times, and never really tire of it. If you enjoy tech and cyberpunk literature, then this is an excellent addition after Neuromancer

Mona Lisa Overdrive is very exciting cyberpunk novel that places the reader right smack-dab into the middle of several interwoven characters storyline, and voyeurs of the corrupt multinational corporations salivating for the next best selling gear in a high-tech Marketplace.
