This folder has stood empty for too long!

I'm tired of looking at this empty folder. If anyone is looking for excellent new cyberpunk, check this out Shadow of a Dead Star. Ridiculously good new cyberpunk!

[Nathan]

And of course, if you're unfamiliar with cyberpunk, go read Neuromancer. Do we even need to have the Neuromancer conversation?

[Barry]

Okay, apparently my book is semi-cyberpunk, and I just blogged about why cyberpunk should make a comeback... I mean we're half-way there, for goodness sake! http://www.blog.barrykirwan.com/2011/...

Ah, Neuromancer is on my to read list so should hopefully have read it by end of the year.

[Susinok]

How about Accelerando by Charles Stross? That one was pretty out there.

[Barry]

Neuromancer is simply phenomenal, even today.

[Nathan]

I haven't heard of Accelerando. What is it about?

Also, those of you who like Neuromancer really should check out Gibson's Bridge Trilogy.

i've just been introduced to K.W. Jeter's cyberpunk novels, a friend loaned me a stack of them to me. i was only familiar with his horror & steampunk, didn't realize he was one of the early cyberpunk pioneers. especially in this particularly strange and interesting looking one called Dr. Adder.

Would you consider novels that include far future AI's to be cyberpunk in some way... say even like Hamilton's Void trilogy where humanity is taking the leap to becoming postphysical by downloading their consciousness into the machine?

[mark, personal space invader]

personally, i would say that they incorporate elements of cyberpunk but would not classify them as such.

Here's a new cyberpunk anthology being published this month: Altered States: a cyberpunk / scifi anthology
