Gibson, William Mona Lisa Overdrive
Spectra February 6, 199 0-553-28174-7 / 9780553281743 Paperback Very Good
Gibson burst upon the scene in 1984 with Neuromancer, a revolutionary, inno vative novel that not only gathered up just about every award in the SF fie ld, but also virtually invented a new sub-genre, which has come to be calle d "cyberpunk." He followed it with Count Zero , set in the same neon-lit, o ver-urbanized, polluted, high-tech future; an even better novel, it was nec essarily not as breathtakingly unfamiliar and inventive as the first. This new novel completes the series, following the lives of some of the characte rs from the previous books (Bobby Newmark, Count Zero himself, is here) as well as many new ones, particularly Angie Mitchell, star of simstims and id ol of millions, who is intuitively sensitive to cyberspace and the vodun de ities that are its manifestations. Told in a gorgeous, highly compressed al most poeticstyle that requires the reader's attention and intelligence, thi s very satisfying novel can stand on its own.

Gibson, William Neuromancer
Ace July 1, 1984 0-441-56959-5 / 9780441569595 Paperback Very Good
Here is the novel that started it all, launching the cyberpunk generation, and the first novel to win the holy trinity of science fiction: the Hugo A ward, the Nebula Award and the Philip K. Dick Award. With Neuromancer, Wil liam Gibson introduced the world to cyberspace--and science fiction has nev er been the same. Case was the hottest computer cowboy cruising the information superhighway--jacking his consciousness into cyberspace, soaring through tactile lattices of data and logic, rustling encoded secrets for anyone with the money to buy his skills. Then he double-crossed the wrong people, who caught up with him in a big way--and burned the talent out of his brain, micron by micron. Banished from cyberspace, trapped in the meat of his physical body, Case courted death in the high-tech underworld. Until a shadowy conspiracy offered him a second chance--and a cure--for a price....

Gibson, William Pattern Recognition
Berkley February 1, 200 0-425-19868-5 / 9780425198681 Paperback Very Good
A crisp clean softcover, no markings throughout: Gibson, known as the "patron saint of cyberpunk lit," has made his reputation with futuristic tales. Though his new novel is set in the present, baroque descriptions of everyday articles and menacing anthropomorphic treatment of the Internet and sister technology give it a sci-fi feel. Cayce Pollard, a market researcher with razor-sharp intuition, makes big bucks by evaluating potential products and advertising campaigns. In London, she stays in the trendy digs of documentary filmmaker friend Damien (away on assignment), whom she e-mails frequently. When Cayce brusquely rejects the new logo of advertising mogul Hubertus Bigend, she earns his respect and a big check but makes an enemy of his graphic designer, vindictive Dorotea Benedetti. Hubertus later hires Cayce to ferret out the origin of a series of sensual film clips appearing guerrilla style on computers all over the world and attracting a growing cult following. Cayce treats this as a standard job until somebody breaks into Damien's flat and hacks into her computer. Suddenly every casual encounter carries undertones of danger. Her investigative trail takes her to Tokyo and Russia and through a rogue's gallery of iconoclastic Web-heads. Casting a further shadow is the memory of her father, Win, a security expert (probably CIA) missing and presumed dead in the World Trade Center disaster of exactly a year earlier. For complicated reasons even she doesn't understand, she connects her current dilemma with her father's tragedy and follows the trail with the fervor of a personal vendetta. Gibson's brisk, kinetic style and i
