The Cyberpunk franchise is the ultimate comeback story. After being nearly sued into the ground for releasing a broken game, Cyberpunk 2077 slowly rebuilt its reputation with the help of a series of bug-fixes, aided by the modding community. Just when it seemed that the game’s shelf life was set to expire, the franchise released Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, a groundbreaking anime miniseries from Studio Trigger. The 10 episode series left viewers with broken hearts, whirling imaginations, and a hunger for more. If you or an anime studio you know is looking for the next Cyberpunk: Edgerunners material, check out these 10 sci-fi books.
Neuromancer
(Ace)Spoiler alert: William Gibson’s Neuromancer already IS Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. It’s also Ghost In The Shell, Akira, and basically every other cyberpunk title in recent memory. While Gibson didn’t singlehandedly code the genre into being, his Sprawl Trilogy hacked into pop culture consciousness and spread the cyperpunk virus far and wide. Set in Night City (sound familiar?) the first of the trilogy concerns a washed up hacker named Case who is contracted for a “one last job” style digital heist by a mysterious ex-military figure. He’s accompanied by a “razorgirl” named Molly Millions, with cybernetic blades grafted beneath her fingers. The pair strike up a stilted romance while embarking on their chaotic neutral jaunt across the metaverse, haunted by the voice of a strange AI that may be pulling the digital strings from afar.
