character-driven, espionage-"lite". Not quite as engaging as Pattern Recognition, but, in and of itself, a great character study, and often tongue-in-cheek, in regards to many issues of the modern age. Takes the continually-used themes of “people caught up in the schemes of people more rich and powerful than themselves”, and makes them interesting. From the man who dreamed of hyperspace, it's so great to see him still on the cutting edge of what's happening and what will happen, sooner than we think.

Typos Detract From the Story. An interesting story, but there are quite a few missing spaces between words in regular text and italics, and some capitalized words. This seems to occur on every other page and keeps taking me out of the story, otherwise I would give it a higher rating.

One of his best. As Gibson has grown as a writer, he's streamlined his style-- gotten closer and closer to contemporary times. Now, with Spook Country, he's chasing the past. A pop-culture kaleidoscope, a thriller, a believer in all possibilities. This book looks under the bed.

A smashing work. Great work as always. Gibson delivers a riveting and exciting tale full of kitsch brandmanship and wistful cynicism. The action scenes are pure cinema in your mind.
