"Dead But Dreaming Of Electric Sheep." Paul Tremblay.
Never read this author before, and I only picked to book up because of the title.
20-something Julia is trying to cut ties with her tech billionaire mother. Mom offers Julia $5,000.00 to come to her office and interview for a one shot job.
Wild ideas, well presented.
Classic.
"Red Harvest" by Dashiell Hammett. Ever heard about that classic movie where a drifter wanders into a corrupt town and decides to start a war where all the baddies kill each other? This is the novel they stole the idea from. Almost a century old, and it's still kicking ass.
