--- Quote from: Simulacra ---I'm almost finished with "Burning Chrome", also by William Gibson, making "The Difference Engine" and "Virtual Light" the only two books of his i don't own yet. This one is a collection of short stories from much earlier in his writing career. It's kinda fun to look through the short stories and pick out some of the archetypes he uses in his later books.
--- End quote ---
I like most of Burning Chrome, and I love some of it. In particular I'm a fan of the story The Winter Market - I think it's a brilliant example of how to write humanist cyberpunk.
The Difference Engine is well worth it, although it's... different to the rest of Gibson's work. Haven't read Virtual Light.

I'm reading Giri by Marc Olden... it's pretty much the most offensive litterature i've ever read. I play a game called "open up to any page and be disgusted". It's trashy and I picked it up from a girage sale but still... it has action and drama and a butt load about Japanese culture (even if some of it is a tad distorted).
Not the best peice of litterature nor my proudest to have read, but still worth a read if you have nothing better.
Also just finished Fight Club by Chuck Pahlinuk (probobly butchered the spelling). It makes the movie make a lot more sense. I got the whole split personality schtick (I don't see how some people were confused by it) but it really makes you understand the motivation Tyler had for doing what he did better (this is assuming that people reading this have watched and/or read Fight Club before). Also very different from the movie
