"Shock Pao is the best. In the virtual world the Slip there's nothing he can't steal for the right price. Outside the Slip, though, he's a Fail - no degree, no job. So when his ex offers him a job, breaking into a corporate databank, he accepts--it's either that, or find himself a nice bench to sleep under. Amiga works for psychotic crime lord Twist Calhoun so when Shock's war comes to her, it's her job to bring him to Twist, dead or alive."--Amazon.com.

It's got all the cyberpunk background elements and they are heavy and dense, which is exactly what I'm looking for. What it doesn't have is... much else. Two main characters, male and female, which are actually the same, and that is a person with some unsolved issues with an ex. And with ridiculous, teenish behaviour, though they are supposed to be super tough and best of the best in the crime world.
Immature would be the best word to sum up this book.

felt kinda like snowcrash in term of pace and cyberpunk, only without the mytho-linguistic stuff. Also ppls feelings felt like they change to fit plot needs but maybe I have no faith in the goodness of humanity?
