Neuromancer is a 1984 science fiction novel by American-Canadian writer William Gibson. Considered one of the earliest and best-known works in the cyberpunk genre, it is the only novel to win the Nebula Award, the Philip K. Dick Award, and the Hugo Award. It was Gibson's debut novel and the beginning of the Sprawl trilogy. Set in the future, the novel follows Henry Case, a washed-up hacker hired for one last job, which brings him in contact with a powerful artificial intelligence.

Fascinante

[ESP] Es fácil darse cuenta de por qué es tan influyente, aunque ha quedado comprensiblemente anticuado en algunas cosas, como hace notar Gibson en el prólogo.

El libro es más o menos complicado de leer, pero tiene varios pasajes ciertamente fascinantes, en los que se describe el mundo altamente computerizado que se contruye

[ENG] It's easy to grasp why this book is so important, even though in certain aspects it's understandably outdated, as Gibson himself notes in the prologue.

The book is somewhat difficult to follow, but has some fascinating parts in how well he describes the electronics heavy world he built
