"This book cuts right to the bone. There's nothing mindlessly sweet about it. I loved it. I loved it. The censor will have a fit when he reads it, but we'll survive." — Philip K. Dick.
Los Angeles is divided into Rattown, home to the marginalized and the Liberation Front, and Orange County, home to the corporate elite and the well-fed, television-addicted bourgeoisie. Between them lies the Interface—a neutral zone where Dr. Adder's girls roam, surgically modified to suit his clients' secret desires. E. Allen Limit leaves his native ranch to experience a great adventure in the City of Angels. As he sets out to meet a renowned surgeon, he has no idea he'll soon find himself caught in the crossfire between the doctor and his nemesis, John Mox, a televangelist and head of the Video Church of Moral Powers in a city as rotten as it is desperate. The book, lauded by Philip K. Dick, who unsuccessfully attempted to publish it, was published only after the Master's death and immediately became a classic. Written more than a decade before William Gibson's Neuromancer, this novel heralded the cyberpunk wave that would forever change science fiction. After so many years, Dr. Adder has lost none of its brutality, fury, or relevance.
