Nine wild, weird and wondrous stories, written together by Rucker and Sterling. What do you get if two cyberpunk masters spend thirty years writing tales about transreally warped versions of themselves? A unique perspective on giant ants, flying jellyfish, Soviet rocketeers, runaway genomics, Silicon Valley, and the death of the Universe. With notes by the authors and an introduction by Rob Latham

Review of 'Transreal Cyberpunk' on Goodreads

4 stars

A collection of supremely weird stories. If you liked Semiotext(e) SF, this is a good companion.

Despite the title, not a lot here can be described as "cyberpunk" -- it's probably called this because it's the collaboration between two figures most closely identified with the cyberpunk movement. Instead, this ranges from gonzo biopunk to bizarro.
