"
All Tomorrow's Parties is immensely engaging, alive on every page and as enjoyable a weekend entertainment as one could want."--
The Washington Post Book World "Gibson, one of science fiction's greatest literary stylists, is at his best [when] he offers visceral detail even when promising transcendent change--a moment in the near future when the fabric of daily life will twist profoundly."--
Wired "Moves at warp speed...[Gibson] is a witty and compelling storyteller."--
Los Angeles Times "[A] hard-edged and grimly beautiful piece of work."--
Chicago Tribune "Gibson has done it again."--
Time Out New York "A creepily plausible near-future of nanotechnology and virtual-reality pop idols, delineated in Gibson's customary diamond-sharp prose as the plot hurtles toward existential apocalypse."--
Elle "Ultra-cool cyberpunk...this familiar, vigorous, vividly realized scenario is set forth in the author's unique and astonishingly textured prose."--
Kirkus Reviews "Gibson's rich protopointillism coins a wireless future where reality is only proxy and proviso. Made all the more beautiful and frightening by its probability, and by characters who somehow tweeze hope from the polymer."--Chris Carter, creator of
The X-Files
