Vurt. But Paolo beats it. I love the crank-battery things and it being a Sci/Thai/fi

How about a cyberpunk novel with a strong fantasy (in terms of storytelling and length) bent?

Vurt, then. Cyber punk with fantastical acid trips

How is TWG? I've read _The Water Knife_ and it showed a promising author but I keep putting off TWG for some reason.

also recommending Vurt. there's a couple more related books and some short stories.

OP here:
I really enjoyed it. I read a lot of sci-fi and the world still felt very fresh. This is partially because it is set in a different culture (Thailand), but also because the world has had to adopt a very different kind of tech than the ones we're used to. Oil and coal are mostly gone and green energy hasn't replaced it so most energy comes from good old kinetic energy produced by people and animals and stored in huge mechanical cranks instead of batteries. Their is also more biological technology like genetic modification and so on. People who have had their DNA spliced with that of dogs to make them more obedient, for example. It also manages to keep good forward momentum without throwing a firefight every fifty pages, which is nice.

I read Pollen and Automated Alice, they didn't really compare to Vurt. If anything they were a bit rubbish.
