I love Gibson’s style – his writing is sparse and cool, and he never misplaces a single word. Almost every sentence is finely crafted and judged to perfection. Spook Country is not science fiction, but it blurs the line between present and future by means of an avant-garde art form, which eventually has a bearing on the shadowy spy story that is plays out across LA, New York, and Vancouver. It’s subtle and wonderful – savour and enjoy.
