I am going to add a mention in the FAQ about recommended non-FASA
sourcebooks and materials. I am including what I have worked up so far.
I need you (collective you) to take a look at this list, see if any books
are missing. Also, for many of them I do not know the publishers or
authors, and if you happen to know, please let me know. Thanks.

NON-FASA SOURCEBOOK RECOMMENDATIONS

In addition to the standard FASA-published materials, there are a great
number of sourcebooks available for other games and systems that can
provide a good many ideas for inclusion in your Shadowrun world. To this
end, included is a listing of many of these books.

NOTE: Use of these books will change Shadowrun (for example, by
adding spaceflight and other ultra-high technology), and it
is recommended only for expierienced GMs.
