'The Difference Engine', co-authored with Bruce Sterling, is not set in the future but in the middle of an alternate nineteenth century. Steam-driven mechanical computers have been developed and determine the life of the protagonists in this detective story. ¶ Gibson and Sterling point out the effects of the information age one hundred years ahead of its time.
