Jeff Noon just really screwed his own series with this book. Luckily he went on to write other novels, including a totally different series.
The sweet death of Coyote, master taxi driver, was only the first . Jeff Noon just really screwed his own series with this book. Pollen, Jeff Noon's sequel to Vurt, is a good read, but ultimately didn't live up to my expectations.

Pollen is a 1995 science fiction novel written by British author Jeff Noon. Pollen is the sequel to Vurt and concerns the ongoing struggle between the real world and the virtual world. When concerning the virtual world, some references to Greek mythology are noticeable, including Persephone and Demeter, the river Styx and Charon, and Hades (portrayed by the character John Barleycorn). The novel is set in Manchester.
