But even that might not be enough.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The series contains the following books: | |

Post-Cyberpunk: A combination of Conspiracy Thriller and Cyberpunk, The Upgrade asks the question about how the world might end up under the control of corporations and what sort of people would be inclined to oppose them. Unlike regular cyberpunk, the answer is not a bunch of anti-establishment rebels but white collar idealists and trained soldiers. | |
