The BlackHammer CyberPunk Project


Now I'm not saying these are all GOOD CyberFiction, but I have purposefully omitted novels I didn't like and didn't feel were appropriate. I feel that these are novels that every CP2020 player and GM should read to refresh their memories of the near future.

Every novel listed here is a link to the appropriate page at Amazon dot com where you can order that book - this is done as a service to you and so you can read other's reviews of the book and even order it if you want (and yes, if you do order a book through these links, we do get a small cash bonus for the referal - but this is not originally designed as an bookstore, for that we recommend you hit www.cyberpunk.co.uk who have gone through the trouble of setting up a far better virtual bookstore). Unfortunately a good number of these books are long out of print and hard to find... And unfortunately I don't have extra copies to loan out.

Now that that's been said, some of these novels are MUST READS. The obvious choices are the Gibsons and Stephenson's Snow Crash. But I really feel that Little Heroes and Synners should be on the "short list" so-to-speak.
