‘Writing at flame intensity, Gibson conjures a world that seems just a breath away from the here and now’
Salon
The Bridge, San Francisco, after the quake-
Ex-cop Berry Rydell has been hired by Colin Laney – who is hooked deep into the network of things – to go to San Francisco and act in such a way that he comes to the attention of a certain unspecified individual. This, Laney promises Rydell, could prove life-threatening.
And now Rydell’s been sent a package. Something that belonged to Laney, something that others with guns, blades and very bad attitudes want. And suddenly Rydell’s running, trying get to the old Bridge, the shantytown where a man can get lost, be forgotten and wait for the end of the world – which is the other thing that Laney promised . . .
‘With more insight, wit and sheer style than any of his contemporaries Gibson continues to patrol the nebulous zones that separate science fiction, contemporary thrillers and genuine literature’
