Message: [QUOTE="ThatOneLum, post: 282759, member: 309457"] William Gibson is foundational to the genre (literally), and his work can feel a little rough if you've read modern takes on the genre. They're mostly straight-up classic Cyberpunk with corpo-control, near-future settings ruined by tech, and a huge focus on an underground scene of criminals working against corporate interests. RE: Sprawl, it's a great trilogy to get into because they're not directly tied together by main characters or anything. The entire series takes place over nearly 2 decades (IIRC) and mostly focuses on new people for each novel. I can also recommend "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" which is a Phillip K Dick story that went on to become the basis for Blade Runner. Even if you've seen the film, I can highly recommend the book because it genuinely adds a decent amount of stuff that you don't really get to understand from the movie alone. [/QUOTE]
