Shill me some good sifi audio books.
Kind of looking for something in the cyberpunk genre. I've read all the classics.

Have you finished stuff from Dennis E Taylor?
House of Suns - is set in distant future so not really cyberpunk but an ok scifi.
Little Heroes?
Don't think I've heard of that one. I'll look for it.
I read it… Norman Spinrad… donno if there is an audio book available
I'll take a look for it. If I don't find an audiobook version, I'll probably look for a paper copy. I'm not dead set on needing an audiobook. It's just nice for multitasking sometimes. I can listen to a story and do mindless work.
Do you have somewhere list of your favorite ones?
Probably the closest thing I have to a list like that is my audiobook server, which isn't necessarily public, but I think I could make an RSS feed that has my favorite books in it and then give people access to that.
I finished the Body Scout earlier this year and it was okay.
I am looking forward to reading the Windup Girl by Paolo Bacigalupi and Red Rising by Pierce Brown.
Both look pretty good but I am going through ancient greek right now Mythos, Heroes, Troy, Iliad, Odyssey, Aeneid and some Percy Jackson.
Have you read Harry Harrison's, "Make Room! Make Room!"? It is what the movie "Soylent Green" is based on.
I just wanna get something off my chest while we're on the topic of SciFi novels: time travel and multi-universe themes are often done poorly but Asimov, the goat, NAILED them both in "the end of eternity" and "the gods them selves", respectively.
Ooooh when my book is done I'll let you know 🙏🏻
