William Gibson--Prophet of The New War?... Or Just an Author?


The blog Global Nerdy (great name, guys) has a posting comparing the recent cyber-attacks against Estonia (see the news here and here) to the cyberpunk hackers in the novels of William Gibson. He doesn't fare so well in the predicting game. Then again, he is after all an author, not a fortuneteller. (Sorry, SF fans, it's true.)

Gibson's newest novel Spook Country comes out in August.
