Poetic and lyric. fine hardcover fine jacket "William Gibson is another remarkably entertaining writer with a keen sense of humor - elements that may seem oddly foreign to his current status as the Heavy Honcho of Cyberpunk. In truth, however, the image of black-clad irony, attitude and angst (the punk in cyberpunk) has only been one element in a style far more colorful than the downbeat world of the terminally cool. Virtual Light gathers a handful of characters in an evocatively strange near future, then thrusts them into a thriller plot . Gibson has made these future North and South Californias as much his own as Raymond Chandler did the Southern California of the '40s . Now I know what it must have felt like to grab the new Chandler, hot off the press"- Locus, July 1993. 1994 Hugo Finalist for Best Novel.
