In addition to the aesthetic I think cyberpunk has the best soundtrack to pair with a genre. That 80s synth hits hard. Memory Reboot - Narvent & NOJ (slowed ) is currently my windows down driving jam

Great Cyberpunk overview! I'm reading Snow Crash later this year, and I guess that will be my entry into this subgenre. I appreciated your thoughts on all three books!

Thank you so much for stopping by 🙏 I hope you enjoy your time in Snow Crash!

Seems like I've got some excting stuff waiting for me, as I haven't read any of these yet! Thanks for the recs, I am especially intrigued by Snowcrash because of the deeper character work that I typically need in my stories. Loved this video!

Snow Crash was not the story I was expecting at all lol I'm sure you'll blow right through it though 😂

Pretty much love everything about this video. Cool background, great books, and basically everything you said I feel similar to. For Neuromancer, something that helped me "adjust to the writing" was actually listening to the sample of the Audiobook. The narrator sort of helps make the lingo make sense, then I read it physically after that. Also, SUPER JEALOUS of that Androids Dream of Electric Sheep copy you have. I've had my eye on it forever but never pulled the trigger. Great video man!

also totally just added No_Coincidence and Thrill Switch to my TBRs!

Haha, thank you so much for your kind words 🥲🙌 That sounds like a great approach to Neuromancer with it being a big challenging to fully grasp in the beginning, at least for me haha

Neuromancer has the Johnny Mnemonic movie the Prequel book adaptation. It’s a shame how big fail is yet it’s fun to see it’s also Keanu Reeves in it before Matrix.

You're going to make me get so many books--Snow Crash (language + ideas? that whole setup!???) it is right what I love to read! Speaking of which, have you read Babel-17? I think that some aspects of it fall within the cyberpunk genre, but it certainly has the big thought-provoking ideas; would love to hear your thoughts on it! Also, do you know if there are books on the Deus Ex universe? That game is also quite cyberpunk I think!

I have not read Babel-17 actually so I need to check that one out! In terms of Deus Ex, I also am not sure if there is book source material or not lol but now we need to find out 😄
