Advance Praise
"A myriad of characters and styles highlights the variety of voices and ideas in current science fiction, and the authors gleefully expand the already-fluid definition of cyberpunk."
—Publishers Weekly
"Killer apps outnumber the glitches in twenty short, bracing narratives of cyberpunk sci-fi."
—Kirkus Reviews
"This is the upgrade: the new, real sound of diverse futures, mad and magnificent, the world on a wire. Essential."
—Warren Ellis, author of Gun Machine and Transmetropolitan
"This is old-school cyberpunk written by new-school talent--the caliber of writers found in this book is like a dream-team of storytellers ready to hack your skull and implant their tales into your brain-meats. Cyber World gives the cyberpunk genre a much-needed reboot."
—Chuck Wendig, New York Times bestselling author of Star Wars: Aftermath and Zer0es
