Published to celebrate its 40th anniversary, this special edition features a unique two-handed introduction between the book’s author and editor, legendary science fiction publisher Malcolm Edwards, charting the genesis of this science fiction game-changer with never-before-seen extracts from Gibson and Edwards’ personal correspondence from 1983.
This special, illustrated and limited edition signed by the author and illustrator sold out at the publisher in under four hours. Neuromancer is considered the founding text of the cyberpunk genre, the book that predicted online culture, and remains the only novel to have ever won the ‘triple crown’ of a Nebula, Hugo and Philip K. Dick award.
This book is new in original wrapping, as received directly from the publisher. We have only carefully removed it to check for imperfections. This looks to be a fine copy. The pictures from inside the book (with the exception of the photo of the limitation page itself) are all pictures from a previous copy we have sold, for illustrative purposes.
