Roo’d – a Cyberpunk Novel

Roo'd - A Cyberpunk Novel

“Roo’d is geek-addled cyberpunk fiction at its finest, about a teenage boy with two prosthetic legs and a band of misfit body-modders, shamanistic computer hackers, and pharmaceutically psychotic bioscientists. But it’s also an exploration of someone coming to grips with what they truly love to do – and what it means to do it in a confusing world of shades of gray.”

Neal Stephenson gave me some advice about a year after I wrote this, which was more or less that if I’d already edited my book a couple of times and still didn’t feel it was ready then I should get on with things and write another one.

I ignored his advice until now, when its good sense finally sunk in. So here’s my first novel – a cyberpunk exploration of one geek’s search for meaning. Even cooler, it was chosen for release for the eBook reader for the iPhone – the first modern novel released for the platform, and the second available after Tarzan – which led to it being made available on Amazon.com! W00t!

If you like it, please let me know, and if you think you can rewrite it better, give it a shot – It’s released under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 License for exactly that purpose. Big thanks to Cory Doctorow for encouraging aspiring authors like myself to give their work to the world this way!
