Hi, I'm another lurker coming from the shadows - currently interested in pursuing the connection between HB and cyberpunk; the way that CP has evolved/morphed/transmogrified from the HB genre, perhaps just HB with microsoft but some of the foremost current promulgators - William Gibson has been cited as being influenced by Chandler and Jeff Noon says he has read everything by Jamie Lee Burke makes this thread possibly plausible. If anyone has any thoughts/refs etc I'd be glad to confer/discuss.... over Jim Sinclair,T.O.P.N.Z.,Pvte Bag 31914, Lower Hutt, New Zealand.
