34) Sterling, Bruce. HOLY FIRE. Bantam: 1996.

Cyber tech end of the century futuristic science fiction. Good themes about creativity and humanity, existence versus living, rejuvenation body mods.

Best (no, I don't agree but its awfully clever) quote was from a scene of two characters discussing reading:

"It's awful, a terrible habit! In virtuality at least you get to interact! Even with television you at least have to use visual processing centers and parse real dialogue with your ears! Really, reading is so bad for you, it destroys your eyes and hurts your posture and makes you fat."
