Do you have any recommendations? I like the genre, but I've only really read Neuromancer, Snow Crash, and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.I have an acquired taste
Read the other two books in the Sprawl trilogy. They're pretty damn good and the only character they have in common is Molly. Islands in the Net by Bruce Sterling is a classic, albeit dated, but the whole genre is dated so that's okay. Mirrorshades is seminal. Hardwired isn't as good, but it sure is cyberpunk as fuck. Variation on a theme: The Difference Engine is Patient Zero of Steampunk and, in my opinion, the only book worth bothering with. I kinda feel like Paolo Bacigalupi picked up the torch where Gibson dropped it; Windup Girl is every bit as cyberpunk as The Sprawl, only the gadgets are biological, not cybernetic.
