From The Publisher:
In 1982 the brilliant science fiction movie
Blade Runner
was released, and a phenomenon was born.
Set in the steel-and-microchip jungle of twenty-first century Los Angeles, this masterpiece re-created our vision of the future, telling the story of Rick Deckard, a 'blade runner' who tracks down and executes renegade androids.
Now, for the millions of fans of the movie, as well as those coming to the saga for the first time, K. W. Jeter's stylish and sophisticated new novel reenters that seedy, high-tech world and opens a new chapter of thrilling, nonstop, futuristic suspense.
This time Deckard himself becomes both hunter and hunted in a race to prove his own humanity by tracking down the most elusive and dangerous android of all . . .
