Synners: The Arthur C Clarke award-winning cyberpunk masterpiece for fans of William Gibson and THE MATRIX

3.70 (1,926 ratings by Goodreads)

English

By (author): Pat Cadigan

What does it mean to be human when you're part of the machine?

Synners are synthesizers - not machines, but people. They take images from the brains of performers, and turn them into a form which can be packaged, sold and consumed. This book is set in a world where new technology spawns new crime before it hits the streets.

In SYNNERS the line between technology and humanity is hopelessly slim; the human mind and the external landscape have fused to the point where any encounter with reality is incidental.

A classic novel from one of the founders and mainstays of the cyberpunk movement.

Readers are astounded by SYNNERS:

'A masterpiece that deserves its place in the SF Masterworks series'- Goodreads reviewer,

'Stone-home great! Cadigan is yet another example that puts pay to the lie of sci-fi being a somehow inherently shallow genre' - Goodreads reviewer,

'This novel has really everything I want when reading SF: mind-blowing technology, non-utopia setting, and 'real' personal characters' - Goodreads reviewer,

'A masterpiece of Cyberpunk . . . Synners is science fiction at its best: innovative, stirring, and not always easy to figure out but always poignantly thought provoking' - Goodreads reviewer,

'It's genius, and a mess and incredibly ground-breaking and seriously, should be considered a science fiction classic . . . Question any list of great/classic SF that doesn't include this book' - Goodreads reviewer,

'Loved this book so much I wrote my master's dissertation on it' - Goodreads reviewer,
