Overview
Step into the neon-lit, rain-slicked future that redefined science fiction forever. This four-book paperback bundle gathers William Gibson's genre-founding Sprawl trilogy, Neuromancer, Count Zero, and Mona Lisa Overdrive, alongside his acclaimed short-story collection Burning Chrome. Neuromancer, Gibson's Hugo, Nebula, and Philip K. Dick Award-winning 1984 debut, coined the term cyberspace and ignited the cyberpunk movement almost single-handedly. Count Zero and Mona Lisa Overdrive extend that same vision across corporate intrigue, biotech espionage, and tangled digital fates. Brand new and matched in format, this set is a strong starting point for readers and collectors exploring Gibson's most influential work.

About the Books
This collection assembles the core texts of William Gibson's Sprawl universe, the body of work that gave science fiction its cyberpunk vocabulary. Neuromancer, published in 1984, follows Case, a burned-out console cowboy hired for one last, impossible job navigating corporate power and artificial intelligence in cyberspace. It swept the Hugo, Nebula, and Philip K. Dick Awards, a rare triple win that cemented Gibson's reputation almost overnight. Count Zero widens the lens, following Turner, Marly, and the young hacker Bobby through a volatile landscape of biotech conglomerates and digital espionage. Mona Lisa Overdrive closes the trilogy, weaving together a runaway girl, a famous Sense/Net star, and the fallout of choices made across the earlier books, bringing the saga's themes of identity and technology to a close roughly eight years after Count Zero. Rounding out the set, Burning Chrome collects Gibson's early short stories, prefaced by fellow cyberpunk author Bruce Sterling. The collection includes Johnny Mnemonic, later adapted into a feature film, along with other stories from the same era of Gibson's career that first explored the wired, corporate-run futures he would become famous for. Together these four books trace cyberpunk from its explosive origin through its fullest expression in the Sprawl trilogy, offering a consistently formatted paperback set for readers who want Gibson's foundational vision of a networked, corporate-run future gathered in one place, without hunting down mismatched editions or older printings from different publishers across used bookstores and online marketplaces.

About the Author
William Gibson, born March 17, 1948, is an American-Canadian author widely credited as the father of the cyberpunk genre. His 1984 debut novel Neuromancer swept the Hugo, Nebula, and Philip K. Dick Awards and introduced the term cyberspace to popular culture, anticipating the internet age years before it arrived. Gibson followed that breakout success with Count Zero and Mona Lisa Overdrive, completing the Sprawl trilogy, and with the short-story collection Burning Chrome. His writing blends noir sensibility with speculative technology, and his influence can be traced through decades of science fiction film, television, and literature that followed in his wake.
