Count Zero (ISBN 0441117732) is a science fiction novel written by William Gibson. A prime example of the cyberpunk sub-genre, it is set in the same milieux as Gibson's prior novel Neuromancer, and forms the middle volume of The Sprawl trilogy.
Eight years after the events of Neuromancer, strange things begin to happen in The Matrix, leading to the proliferation of what appear to be voodoo gods.
The name of the book is a word-play of the programming term Count Zero, when in a loop a counter reachs a zero value and therefore exits the loop, it also refers to the nick of a character of the book Bobby Newmark, Count Zero.
