The Sprawl trilogy (also Neuromancer trilogy, Cyberspace trilogy) is William Gibson's first set of novels, composed of Neuromancer (1984), Count Zero (1986) and Mona Lisa Overdrive (1988).
The novels are all set in the same fictional future, and subtly interlinked by shared characters and themes (which are not always readily apparent). The Sprawl trilogy shares this setting with Gibson's short stories "Johnny Mnemonic", "New Rose Hotel" and "Burning Chrome", and events and characters from the stories appear in or are mentioned at points in the trilogy.
