  • A cyberpunk staple

  • While perhaps not the best cyberpunk or science fiction novel, it is definitely a quintessential example of cyberpunk's beginnings, fully embodying the qualities of the genre. Hip, tech-savvy, and positively bad ass, this work shows Gibson at the top of his game.

One of the most important and influential novels of our time.

Neuromancer is the multiple award-winning novel that launched the astonishing career of William Gibson. The first fully-realized glimpse of humankind's digital future, it is a shocking vision that has challenged our assumptions about our technology and ourselves, reinvented the way we speak and think, and forever altered the landscape of our imaginations.

Now, for the first time, Ace Books is proud to present this groundbreaking literary achievement in a new trade paperback edition.

Winner of science fiction's 'Triple Crown'--the Hugo, Nebula, and Philip K. Dick awards.
