Another book down
I just finished "Pattern Recognition," by William Gibson.
Gibson, author of "Neuromancer," is the guy who invented the word cyberspace. He invented the genre that spawned "The Matrix."
"Pattern Recognition" is set in modern times, however, and is not a genre novel. It's about post 9-11 life in front of the computer and in the world, with a dash of conspiracy thrown in and some cultural commentary about consumerism. I recommend it.
