Any recommendations on what to read after this one? I also have Piranesi Susanna Clarke on my backlog, but would like something in a similar technological fashion as Snow Crash

I’m gonna go a slightly different direction.

Try the Firefall series by Peter Watts.

Think a little more like a futuristic Vampire story. It’s supposed to be horror, like Alien I think, but I didn’t find it scary. Just a fun take on the genre.
