Cyber Punk

{the following is a blog post written for my book club blog, Radical Period Queer Period on 6/5/09}

For those of you who have heard the term "Cyber Punk" or are intrigued by tales wrapping the ordinary idea of the internet with the theory of explorable cyberspace, I've got something for ya. This is also good for anyone looking for a digestable Sci-Fi book to check out before we delve into July's book, Stranger in a Strange Land.

William Gibson is often regarded as the creator of the idea behind cyber punk, and he's a prolific author with a number of incredible novels to his credit. His most well known, his first, is called Neuromancer. I've just finished reading Virtual Light and Mona Lisa Overdrive, both of which are short, fast-paced and intriguing to read. I recommend 'em. Cheers!
