Sf/cyberpunk trailblazer Gibson, whose Neuromancer gave us the term cyberspace, gathers more than 20 nonfiction essays, speeches, and other works together in this collection. Published between 1989 and 2008, these works offer insight into a writer whose dark humor and speculative style provides a glimpse into his thoughts and perspectives as he reflects on the past and projects into the future.
VERDICT Actor and award-nominated narrator Roberston Dean brings a clear, well-paced reading to this compilation, which will catch the ears of Gibson fans. [See Prepub Alert, LJ 8/1/11.—Ed.]
