Bøger af William Gibson

El futuro ya está aquí, y no es un juego.Ahora una serie en Amazon Prime. Flynne Fisher vive en una zona rural de una América futura, donde los empleos son escasos, a menos que te dediques a la fabricación ilegal de drogas, algo que ella evita a toda costa. Su hermano Burton vive, o lo intenta, de la subvención que la Administración de Veteranos le otorga por daños neurológicos sufridos en la unidad de Rehabilitación Táctica del cuerpo de élite de los Marines. Flynne intenta sobrevivir con lo que gana trabajando en una cadena de montaje de productos en impresión 3D. Aunque gana más dinero como jugadora de un juego online, donde juega en nombre de un hombre rico. Wilf Netherton vive en Londres, setenta y pico años después, en medio de una lenta apocalipsis. Pero las cosas parecen bastante estables por ahora. Wilf es un reputado publicista, con cierto toque romántico, nostálgico e inadaptado que contrasta con la sociedad en la que vive, en la que los viajes al pasado son simplemente un pasatiempo. Burton ha estado trabajando secretamente en un proyecto online para garantizar la seguridad en un juego ambientado en un mundo virtual que se parece vagamente a Londres, pero con un aire aún más extraño. Flynne y Wilf están a punto de conocerse. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The New York Times bestselling author of Neuromancer and Agency presents a fast-paced sci-fi thriller that takes a terrifying look into the future. Now a Prime Video Series. Flynne Fisher lives down a country road, in a rural America where jobs are scarce, unless you count illegal drug manufacture, which she's trying to avoid. Her brother Burton lives on money from the Veterans Administration, for neurological damage suffered in the Marines' elite Haptic Recon unit. Flynne earns what she can by assembling product at the local 3D printshop. She made more as a combat scout in an online game, playing for a rich man, but she's had to let the shooter games go. Wilf Netherton lives in London, seventy-some years later, on the far side of decades of slow-motion apocalypse. Things are pretty good now, for the haves, and there aren't many have-nots left. Wilf, a high-powered publicist and celebrity-minder, fancies himself a romantic misfit, in a society where reaching into the past is just another hobby. Burton's been moonlighting online, secretly working security in some game prototype, a virtual world that looks vaguely like London, but a lot weirder. He's got Flynne taking over shifts, promised her the game's not a shooter. Still, the crime she witnesses there is plenty bad. Flynne and Wilf are about to meet one another. Her world will be altered utterly, irrevocably, and Wilf's, for all its decadence and power, will learn that some of these third-world types from the past can be badass.

"Pattern Recognition is William Gibson's best book since he rewrote all the rules in Neuromancer."-Neil Gaiman, author of American Gods"One of the first authentic and vital novels of the 21st century."-The Washington Post Book WorldThe accolades and acclaim are endless for William Gibson's coast-to-coast bestseller. Set in the post-9/11 present, Pattern Recognition is the story of one woman's never-ending search for the now...Cayce Pollard is a new kind of prophet-a world-renowned "coolhunter" who predicts the hottest trends. While in London to evaluate the redesign of a famous corporate logo, she's offered a different assignment: find the creator of the obscure, enigmatic video clips being uploaded to the internet-footage that is generating massive underground buzz worldwide. Still haunted by the memory of her missing father-a Cold War security guru who disappeared in downtown Manhattan on the morning of September 11, 2001-Cayce is soon traveling through parallel universes of marketing, globalization, and terror, heading always for the still point where the three converge. From London to Tokyo to Moscow, she follows the implications of a secret as disturbing-and compelling-as the twenty-first century promises to be...

Hollis Henry never intended to work for global marketing magnate Hubertus Bigend again. But now she's broke, and Bigend has just the thing to get her back in the game... Milgrim can disappear in almost any setting, and his Russian is perfectly idiomatic-so much so that he spoke it with his therapist in the secret Swiss clinic where Bigend paid for him to be cured of his addiction... Garreth doesn't owe Bigend a thing. But he does have friends from whom he can call in the kinds of favors powerful people need when things go sideways... They all have something Bigend wants as he finds himself outmaneuvered and adrift, after a Department of Defense contract for combat-wear turns out to be the gateway drug for arms dealers so shadowy they can out-Bigend Bigend himself."Zero History is [Gibson's] best yet, a triumph of science fiction as social criticism and adventure."-BoingBoing.net
