Jacket Notes:
Best-known for his seminal sf novel Neuromancer, William Gibson is actually best when writing short fiction. Tautly-written and suspenseful, Burning Chrome collects 10 of his best short stories with a preface from Bruce Sterling, now available for the first time in trade paperback. These brilliant, high-resolution stories show Gibson's characters and intensely-realized worlds at his absolute best, from the chip-enhanced couriers of "Johnny Mnemonic" to the street-tech melancholy of "Burning Chrome."
Strand Notes
A collection of ten early short stories (including three collaborations) that range from cyberpunk to surreal. Pieces like `Johnny Mnemonic' and the title story lay the foundation for, and introduce characters from Gibson's seminal Sprawl Trilogy (Necromancer, Count Zero, Mona Lisa Overdrive). Others echo more traditional sci-fi such as the Twilight Zone or Arthur C. Clarke. Includes a new introduction. 204p. Pap.
