Editor’s Note
- James Rose, Editor
It’s the book that predicted online culture before most of us had ever seen a computer screen – the groundbreaking cyberpunk novel that shaped a genre and swept the Nebula, Hugo and Philip K. Dick awards in one fell swoop. William Gibson’s Neuromancer arrives as a spectacular Folio..
A gritty future-noir tale of a washed-up data-thief offered one last job, Neuromancer has long been one of Folio’s most requested titles – and one that demanded close collaboration with Gibson himself. The author approved every detail, including the 14 illustrations by award-winning artist and graphic novelist Anna Mill.
A two-part foreword featuring rare correspondence between Gibson and his original editor, legendary sci-fi publisher Malcolm Edwards, offers a fascinating glimpse into the making of a genre-defining story.
The result is an edition that feels as if it’s been jacked straight from the matrix – a must-have for long-time devotees and new readers alike.

BIOGRAPHIES
Marvellous. Read in paperback, time out of mind. Wonderful to have Folio version. Saw Bill Gibson in a Waterstones in Sheffield , shoulda got his signature then. Oh! Well!

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? and A Scanner Darkly are two of Philip K. Dick’s most celebrated novels. In this celebrated Folio Society collector’s edition, these classics of dystopian science fiction are presented in a mind-bending format – two illustrators, two covers, one spectacular book.
Space just got stranger with Arthur C. Clarke’s science-fiction classic, Rendezvous with Rama. For this exquisite illustrated Folio edition, novelist John Clute provides an introduction celebrating the author’s remarkable imagination.
Dive headfirst into the surreal brilliance of Haruki Murakami with The Folio Society’s new collection. Featuring A Wild Sheep Chase, Kafka on the Shore, Norwegian Wood, and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, each book meticulously designed with series artist Daniel Liévano capturing Murakami's surreal one-of-a-kind imagination. It’s a set for Murakami fans and dreamers who can’t resist a touch of the extraordinary!
Every bit as ambitious and prophetic as the film that shared its inception, Arthur C. Clarke’s 2001: A Space Odyssey remains a towering science-fiction classic. This Folio Society edition sees it illustrated for the first time.
