 I have been looking through the Sci-Fi section for cyberpunk titles, however, all I seem to find is crap about spacebattles or space travel to different worlds. I'm not interested in any of that - I'm getting sick of seeing books with pictures of spaceships on the cover -- how original! -_-.  I have also tried entering the "cyberpunk" keyword into the search engine, but haven't been able to find any good books.

If anyone can recommended any good cyberpunk books, please post them here (No LitRPG or LGBTQRST...). Thank you.

Great! Thank you for the recommendations.
I think I heard of The Quantum Thief, but don't think I read it.

If anyone else has recommendations, please keep them coming! It'd be great if we could get this thread chock-full with titles.



*PS. On another note: It may be a good idea for ABB to add a Cyberpunk category for future uploads.

There really aren't enough to make it sensible, SF is good enough, and anyway, you can never trust the uploader to choose the correct category. You'll miss a lot if you do.

Uploaders can use keywords to make ad hoc categories, though few seem to know this.
https://audiobookbay.lu/audio-books/tag/cyberpunk/ has about 60 books now.

A new one just up, no idea if any good:
https://audiobookbay.lu/audio-books/moxyland-lauren-beukes/

"Moxyland is a cyberpunk dystopian novel written by South African author, Lauren Beukes. The book was published in 2008.

"Moxyland is narrated by four different characters, and each chapter focuses on one of the narrators and her or his own experience living in near futuristic Cape Town, South Africa and under an oppressive and pervasive government and media."
