the peripheral is stand alone; the sprawl novels are loosely connected.
read the peripheral first. i'm telling you, it's going to be a hard act to follow by even gibson himself.

Much of the better books, movies and anime of the genre have already been mentioned, so I'll throw out something newer that ya'll would probably dig.

There has been talk of a Neuromancer movie for several years now, if they don't fuck it up, it'll be great! This is the most recent news I could find: http://www.slashfilm.com/neuromancer-vincenzo-natali/
Also love Anamatrix, Matrix, and Blade Runner.

thanks to whoever recommened "Snow Crash" I'm reading that now and picked up "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" to read next
cames across an artical today and this blew my mind, we are living Cyberpunk
Quote:
Nearly every large metropolis now has its own second life of location-based game layers; whole buildings are wrapped in screens. There are ads for video games on video billboards, and ads on billboards inside of video games – sometimes even ads for other video games. And, really, anyone with the know-how can buy designer drugs on secret websites using an experimental decentralized online currency.
One of the things that defines science fiction is precisely its tangled hierarchy: do we have Mars rovers because aerospace engineers grew up reading Arthur C. Clarke and Robert Heinlein, or did Clarke and Heinlein predict the future? Does Anonymous launch DDoS attacks on government websites, rupturing the system, because they all read Neuromancer when they were 15, or is William Gibson just that good? Probably a little of both, in that case.

American Gods cyberpunk? I don't think so.
