Description

Ten brilliant, seminal, hard-edged, nerve enhancing stories from the most influential science fiction writer of our time. Since they were first published in the 1980s, Gibson’s vision has become a touchstone – not only within the genre. Gibson in the nineties is the unchallenged guru, prophet, and voice of the new cybernetic world order and virtual reality. The stories, with their vivid cast of lowlife characters in an intensely realized high-tech world, paint an instantly recognizable portrait of the modern predicament.
