Synopsis "Neuromancer: The Groundbreaking Cyberpunk Thriller (S. F. Masterworks) "

Henry Dorsett Case is a low-level hustler, former hack and 'console cowboy' who crashed and burned. His nerves were damaged and thus cut off from the digital matrix, he slouches through life.

Until he meets Molly, an augmented 'razorgirl', who offers him a deal on behalf of a shadowy man called Armitage. His nerves repaired and matrix access restored, in exchange for a single job. But it's not so simple - unless he completes the job, sacs of poison will explode inside him and cripple him again.

And the job? That might be impossible.

a ground-breaking success and, along with the ensuing Sprawl trilogy, is responsible for kickstarting the Cyberpunk sub-genre and instilling the concept of cyberspace into the popular imagination, inspiring writers and filmmakers the world over. - Empire

Set for brainstun...one of the most unusual and involving narratives to be read in many an artificially induced blue moon! - The Times

A masterpiece that moves faster than the speed of thought and is chilling in its implications - New York Times

Gibson is the Raymond Chandler of SF - Observer

Gibson is up your alley. He is a technological fantasist with unparalleled sensitivity . . . wired direct to the mains - NME

View Author's Page
William Gibson es uno de los escritores de ciencia ficción más influyentes y elogiados del mundo. Es autor de doce novelas (incluyendo La máquina diferencial coescrita con Bruce Sterling), una antología de relatos (Quemando cromo) y una colección de ensayos (Distrust That Particular Flavor). Considerado un visionario, difunde un potente discurso acerca de nuestros deseos culturales, miedos y obsesiones sobre temas como las multinacionales, la política global, los datos computarizados, la ingeniería genética, la cibernética, el miedo a lo tecnológico y, en última instancia, el significado de ser humano en una era infinitamente compleja.

Su famosa novela Neuromante acuñó el término «ciberespacio» y nos ofreció la primera aproximación a Internet. En siguientes obras superventas, Gibson nos ofreció descripciones proféticas y convincentes de lo que sería la prensa del corazón, la tele realidad y la nanotecnología. Su obra se ha visto influida por la de otros autores y académicos, además de por la tecnología, la cultura popular, el arte y la música. Gibson también ha colaborado en numerosas ocasiones en el campo de las artes escénicas, la música y el cine. Actualmente vive en Vancouver con su mujer.
