John Shirley recommends
 The Flock (2006) James Robert Smith "The Flock is just amazingly fun to read." |  Codename Prague (2011) (Scikungfi Trilogy, book 2) D Harlan Wilson "This intense mixture of giddy activity, cyberpunk essences, avant fusion and social satire may make your head spin at an accelerated rate. Actual brain damage is unlikely, in most cases." |
