Enjoy it mate, and all the other fat Brunners. (His Stand on Zanzibar is most of Gibson's Neuromancer ... more than a decade before.) Give the thin ones a miss.

Brunner in general is kind of proto-cyberpunk. Especially The Shockwave Rider.

I’m baffled by any discussion of Brunner (on HN no less!) that doesn’t start and end with The Shockwave Rider.

TIL. Not sure how I missed this on my trawl of Hugo Winners/Seminal 20th Century Sci-Fi.

Jagged Orbit fits in there as well.
