William Gibson. Neuromancer








THE CRITICS RAVE ABOUT NEUROMANCER. . .
"Neuromancer is freshly imagined, compellingly detailed and chiling..."
- The New York Times
"UNFORGETTABLE. . . The richness of Gibson's world is incredible!"
- Chicago Sun-Times
"SUPERB! Gibson has created a rich, detailed, and vivid near future, populated with uncomfortably realistic characters . . . an amazingly comples novel . . . Some will enjoy it as a fast-paced, exciting adventure; others will claim it's actually a very subtle, clever mystery; still others will see it as a thought-provoking social discourse. . . Neuromancer IS A MAJOR NOVEL, difficult to compare with other works for the simple reason that it really is new, and different . . . HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!"
- Fantasy Review
"A flashy tour of a remarkably well-visualized future. . . Gibson manufactures wild details with a virtuoso's glee. . . an impressive new voice!"
- Newsday

The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.
"It's not like I'm using," Case heard someone say, as he shouldered his way through the crowd around the door of the Chat. "It's like my body's developed this massive drug deficiency." It was a Sprawl voice and a Sprawl joke. The Chatsubo was a bar for professional expatriates; you could drink there for a week and never hear two words in Japanese.
Ratz was tending bar, his prosthetic arm jerking monotonously as he filled a tray of glasses with draft Kirin. He saw Case and smiled, his teeth a web work of East European steel and brown decay. Case found a place at the bar, between the unlikely tan on one of Lonny Zone's ♥♥♥♥♥♥ and the crisp naval uniform of a tall African whose cheekbones were ridged with precise rows of tribal scars. "Wage was in here early, with two Joe boys," Ratz said, shoving a draft across the bar with his good hand. "Maybe some business with you, Case?"
Case shrugged.
