Siete años después de los eventos de 'Neuromante', Conde Cero, un pirata de sistemas de información, se encuentra con un software raro y se conecta a la matriz, casi perdiendo la cabeza en el proceso. La Matriz del Ciberespacio, una base sinérgica de computación que abarca todo el planeta, se ha transformado en una red sensitiva, aunque la humanidad no se ha percatado. Paralelamente, una joven con un sistema nervioso alterado para acceder a la Matriz tampoco comprende lo que está sucediendo. En Francia, la encargada de una galería busca al misterioso creador de objetos de arte únicos y poderosos. Esta novela de ciencia ficción explora temas de tecnología, cultura y la naturaleza humana en un mundo interconectado.

William Ford Gibson is an American and Canadian speculative fiction writer and essayist widely credited with pioneering the science fiction subgenre known as cyberpunk, a category from which he has repeatedly distanced himself. Beginning his writing career in the late 1970s, his early works were noir, near-future stories that explored the effects of technology, cybernetics, and computer networks on humans, a "combination of lowlife and high tech"—and helped to create an iconography for the Information Age before the ubiquity of the Internet in the 1990s. Gibson coined the term "cyberspace" for "widespread, interconnected digital technology" in his short story "Burning Chrome" (1982), and later popularized the concept, along with his usage of the "matrix", in his acclaimed debut novel Neuromancer (1984). These early works of Gibson's have been credited with "renovating" science fiction literature in the 1980s.
