About the author

William Gibson is an American-Canadian speculative-fiction writer whose early work helped define cyberpunk. Before the internet became ordinary, he wrote about networks, virtual space, corporate power, and the way technology changes the texture of perception and desire.

Gibson's future arrives through texture rather than explanation — crowded streets, rented bodies, obsolete hardware, brand names, and bright data architecture. The language moves quickly because Case already belongs to this world, even when he does not understand who is directing him through it.

Where to start

Start with Neuromancer. A damaged console cowboy is hired for one last intrusion into a network guarded by artificial intelligence.
