Cyberpunk books we should have read and reread and taken as a warning, not as a goal, episode 6: "Nueromancer," by @greatdismal.bsky.social I thought this one went without saying, but seems some folks haven't prepared for the AI end times. #scifibooks #booksky www.goodreads.com/book/show/22...

Cyberpunk books we should have read and reread and taken as a warning, not as a goal, episode 5: City Come A-Walkin'. The critical mass of ubiquitous surveillance, corruption, and crime will eventually, literally, consume you. www.goodreads.com/book/show/11... #cyberpunkbooks #scifibooks #booksky

Why cyberpunk? To glimpse the world 5-minutes into the future. Ethos of Cain, 2023: the alliance of billionaires and white-nationalists. A Desperate Measure, 2024: mega-corps seizing public orgs, demanding ownership. An Uncalculated Risk, 2025: exploiting war for profit. #booksky a.co/d/9uOa8z5

Cyberpunk books we all should have read and reread and taken as a warning, not as a goal, episode 4: Synners. What happens when the artificiality of electronic existence spurs a rejection of reality and acceptance of crime? Synners #cyberpunk #scifibooks #booksky www.goodreads.com/book/show/30...

Cyberpunk books we all should have read and reread and taken as a warning, not as a goal, episode 3: Streetlethal. Corruption and criminality lead to Aubrey Knight's getting disappeared by the powerful, only to come back fighting. #cyberpunk #scifibooks #booksky www.goodreads.com/book/show/62...

I am sorry to say it, but this is probably one of the most important things you can repost today.

Cyberpunk books we all should have read and reread and taken as a warning, not as a goal, episode 2: Count Zero. Stop me if you've heard this one: crazed billionaire engages in war-for-profit, tangling with out-of-control AIs, while crushing the masses under foot. www.goodreads.com/book/show/22...

Let's see: market manipulation, war-for-profit, crazed billionaire fascists. It's like Kraznov and his goons stole an advanced copy of "An Uncalculated Risk," saw the antagonists, and thought, "Yeah, let's do that." Hey, traitors: it wasn't a playbook! #MarketManipulation #cyberpunk #booksky

Cyberpunk books we all should have read and reread and taken as a warning, not as a goal, episode 1: The Eclipse Trilogy by John Shirley. Fascist corporate oligarchs push a racist, murderous agenda to subjugate the world, with only the New Resistance to stop them. www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
