Neuromancer by William Gibson
The Matrix: a world within a world, a graphic representation of the databanks of every computer in the human system; a consensual hallucination experienced daily by billions of legitimate users in the Sprawl alone. And by Case, computer cowboy, until his nervous system is grievously maimed by a client he double-crossed. Japanese experts in nerve splicing and microbionics have left him broke and close to dead. But at last Case has found a cure. He's going back into the system. Not for the bliss of cyberspace but to steal again, this time from the big boys, the almighty megacorps. In return, should he survive, he will stay cured.
'Set for brainstun..one of the most unusual and involving narratives to be read in many an artificially induced blue moon!' The Times 'A masterpiece that moves faster than the speed of thought and is chilling in its implications' New York Times
