[Air-l] recent cyberculture novels?

[jeremy hunsinger]

a few greg egan novels might be appropriate
permutation city
diaspora

i'm beginning to think that Ender's Game is less sci-fi and more 
cyberculture oriented, so it might be worthwhile looking at

  verner vinge's 'true names'  many say it is the best representation of 
cyberspace, now it is out in a new edition with many supporting essays

i'll second pat cadigan
