Mirrorshades: The Cyberpunk Anthology by Greg Bear, Paul Di Filippo, Tom Maddox, Lewis Shiner, Bruce Sterling, William Gibson, Pat Cadigan, Marc Laidlaw, James Patrick Kelly, John Shirley, Rudy Rucker

4.0

Contains many of my favorite examples of cyberpunk fiction. From Mozart in Mirrorshades, to the WW1 flight combat sim done in 3D Virtual Reality, this anthology is a collection of many amazing writers and their stories. All of them have stuck with me for the last 15+ years and influenced many of my own writing, and movie decisions. A must read for any beginner to the sci-fi and specifically cyberpunk genre. Also of note - my iPad doesn't try to correct the word "cyberpunk". Kudos to Gibson and Sterling for that I'm sure.
