Overview
Enter the neon-lit future that redefined science fiction. This four-book paperback collection brings together William Gibson's genre-founding Sprawl trilogy—Neuromancer, Count Zero, and Mona Lisa Overdrive—alongside Burning Chrome, his acclaimed short-story companion. Neuromancer, Gibson's Hugo, Nebula, and Philip K. Dick Award-winning 1984 debut, coined the term cyberspace and ignited the cyberpunk movement. Count Zero and Mona Lisa Overdrive extend that vision across corporate intrigue and tangled fates, while Burning Chrome gathers ten sharp, high-velocity stories. Brand new and perfectly matched in format, this set is the definitive 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 stretching from New Delhi to Mexico. 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 ten of Gibson's finest short stories, prefaced by fellow cyberpunk author Bruce Sterling. The collection includes Johnny Mnemonic, later adapted into a film starring Keanu Reeves, along with the Nebula-nominated title story and the Hugo-and-Nebula-nominated Dogfight and The Winter Market. Together these four books trace cyberpunk from its explosive origin through its fullest expression, offering a complete, consistently formatted paperback set for readers who want Gibson's foundational vision of a wired, corporate-run future gathered in one place, without hunting down mismatched editions or older printings from different publishers.

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, won the Hugo, Nebula, and Philip K. Dick Awards and introduced the term cyberspace years before the internet reshaped daily life. Gibson completed the Sprawl trilogy with Count Zero and Mona Lisa Overdrive, and collected his influential early short fiction in Burning Chrome. His densely textured, prophetic style has shaped generations of novelists, filmmakers, and technologists, and his vision of networked, corporate futures remains a foundational touchstone of modern science fiction.
