Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. 1st Edition. First Edition, 1st printing. "In a surprising departure from the traditional view of cyberpunk's bleak future, Gibson and Sterling render with elan and colorful detail a scientifically advanced London, circa 1855, where computers ('Engines') have been developed. Fierce summer heat and pollution have driven out the ruling class, and ensuing anarchy allows the subversive, technology-hating Luddites to surface and battle the intellectual elite. Much of the problem centers on a set of perforated cards, once in the possession of an executed Luddite leader's daughter, later in the hands of 'Queen of Engines' Ada Byron (daughter of prime minister Lord Byron), finally given to Edward Mallory, a scientist. Mallory, who knows the cards are a gambling device that can be read with a specialized Engine, is soon threatened and libeled by the Luddites, and he and his associates confront the scoundrels in a violent showdown. An otherwise visionary, handsomely written, unsentimental tale that convincingly revises the 19th-century Western world." (Publishers Weekly) A pristine, clean & tight copy, unread & unmarked in AS NEW condition, quite presentable & collectible.…
