The sky above the port was the colour of television, tuned to a dead channel.
William Gibson revolutionised science fiction in his 1984 debut Neuromancer. The
writer who gave us the matrix and coined the term 'cyberspace' produced a first
novel that won the Hugo, Nebula and Philip K. Dick Awards, and lit the fuse on
the Cyberpunk movement. More than three decades later, Gibson's text is as
stylish as ever, his noir narrative still glitters like chrome in the shadows
and his depictions of the rise and abuse of corporate power look more prescient
every day. Part thriller, part warning, Neuromancer is a timeless classic of
modern SF and one of the 20th century's most potent and compelling visions of
the future.
