SHADOWRUNNING

I mentioned earlier that this site’s name is an homage to the Shadowrun Novels and thought I would expand on the series a little bit and tell you why I enjoy it so much. First of all Shadowrun started out as a RPG ( role playing game ). I have to admit I have never really played the RPG though I was definitely raised on Role Playing Games like Dungeons and Dragons, Arduin Grimore, Car Wars, Boothill and the like. I think up until I started reading the Shadowrun books my interest in Science Fiction was fairly low. Up until that time I spent most of my reading hours on Fantasy. William Gibson’s Neuromancer had been out for 5 years or so and I am sure I read it previously ( and his other books ) but really the Shadowrun Novels kicked off my interest in Cyberpunk.

More to come…
