Assuming you mean novels, try 2XS, The Secrets of Power Trilogy, Never
Trust an Elf, & Shadowplay. Most of the novels are good but these are
the best I think. I don't like the ones by Mark Gascoigne & Carl Sargent
tho. Seem to verbose & not relevant to SR. (if they talk any more about
coffee I'm gonna KILL)
If you mean sourcebooks/gamebooks, here goes. I'll assume you want
fiction content not game usefulness.I've read ever single SR book in
existance, even perused the Japanese ones (tho I can't really read 'em!)
so I know whereof I speak. Of course it's still my opinion, but...
Great- The Grimoire, Awakenings*, Cybertechnology*, Dunkelzahn's
Secrets*, Threats, Bug City*, Tir Tairngire, Seattle Sourcebook (new
edition comes out soon too), all three of the rulebook versions are cool
yet different*, both Paranormal Animals books, Universal Brotherhood,
Euphoria, Elven Fire, Mercurial, & Virtual Realities 2.0*, & Renraku
Arcology: Shutdown*. * denotes especially cool fiction content. Hope
this helps- please comment all.
