cyberpunk: old and new
 |
| Do androids dream of electric sheep? |
| Dick, Philip K. |
| The basis for the film Bladerunner, this book stands on its own as a melancholy meditation on what it means to be human. |

| Radio freefall |

| An excellent first novel. I can't wait to see what Jarpe produces next! |

| Nightwatch |
| Luk'ianenko, Sergei |
| If the Russians made The Matrix but it was about magicians and vampires, this would be it. The following books in the series are Daywatch and Twilight Watch. I also recommend the movies (but as always, read the books first!) |

| Altered carbon |
| Morgan, Richard K., 1965- |
| Gritty, futuristic, fun, and highly original. A cyberpunk detective novel that takes place in a fully-realized, richly-detailed future world. The first in a series. |

| Snow crash |
| Stephenson, Neal |
| This is true cyberpunk, in that much of the action takes place in the landscape of the internet. It is also deeply funny. |

| Looking for the Mahdi |
| Wood, N. Lee |
| This features a female protagonist, rare for cyberpunk; even rarer, Wood breaks from the sci-fi male-fantasy buxom babe tradition and makes the character plain. She even goes undercover as a man at one point; hooray for gender diversity! |
| Adult Fiction WOOD |
