Why read it?
1 author picked Tropical Punch as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Bubbles in Space couldn’t be more different than the two books above. It features a humoristic approach to the genre and doesn’t take itself too seriously. We follow Bubbles, a pink-haired detective on her adventures in Holo City. Like me, S.C. Jensen is one of the very few female authors in the cyberpunk genre. I recommend checking her books out if you’re looking for something not as grim and dramatic as most cyberpunk books.
From Anna's list on cyberpunk books you won’t be able to put down.
