Why read it?
1 author picked Mindplayers as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Pat Cadigan is one of my favourite authors. Mindplayers is a short book, bizarre and strange but fascinating as per Cadigan’s style. The main setting here is the human mind.

This book makes you wonder how vast the world inside your head is, and if your thoughts and memories really belong to you once a government takes control of them. There’s even Brain Police involved, what can be more dystopian than this?
From Freddie's list on cyberpunk hackers, cyborgs, and dystopian societies.
