Just when I was about to lose hope it looks like there is a possibility for some new fiction (at least in eBook form) for the Shadowrun universe. Check out: Spells & Chrome on the Kindle or your Kindle App for your device of choice. I compare shadowrun books to romance novels. They scratch an itch that has been getting out of control for me recently. KEEP IT UP!!! I hope John Helfers can get some more fiction published over the next couple of months. Fingers crossed.

Who the heck is W.T. Quick and why haven’t I heard of him before?
Just started reading “Dreams of Flesh and Sand” because it was recommended as being a must read for cyberpunk lovers… Well I concur… written in 1988 – 4 years after Neuromancer – it still has some originality to it and I think it adds a dimension to the concept of the matrix.. I get the feeling that Quick is not really a technology guy so he doesn’t really even pretend to explain how the tech might work but to be honest I am ok with that.. I looked to see what else Quick has written and it seems like he is most known for writing for other people (like William Shatner)… unfortunately there does not seem to be any other book in the cyberpunk genre.. what a shame..
