Description

A breath of fresh air . . . the vision is deeply imagined, very complete and controlled . . . Gibson is truly brilliant.Washington Times magazine

From a true master of science fiction comes a collection of shortstories that show how, no matter the length, Gibson is one of the greatest writers working today.

Known for his seminal science fiction novel Neuromancer, and for the acclaimed books Pattern Recognition, The Peripheral, and Agency, William Gibson is actually best when writing short fiction. Tautly written and suspenseful, Burning Chrome collects 10 short stories, including some written withBruce Sterling, John Shirley,and Michael Swanwick, andwith a preface from Bruce Sterling, now available for the first time in trade paperback. These brilliant, high-resolution stories show Gibsons characters and intensely realized worlds at their absolute best, from the chip-enhanced couriers of Johnny Mnemonic to the street-tech melancholy of Burning Chrome.
