Cyberpunk is a genre that flashed by in a few decades. You are mostly going to be looking at older books. It is a genre with a lot of questionable morality.

Authors to look at (Novel form):
  • John Brunner (examples include: Shockwave Rider)
  • Walter Jon Williams
  • Bruce Sterling (Heavy Weather, Islands in the Net, Distraction)
  • Rudy Rucker (Wetware)
  • William Gibson (not to my taste except for 2 books)

I also recommend Charles Stross for similar concepts. Both his lovecraftian universe and the writing exploring the concept of singularity relate to the shadowrun universe.
The Atrocity Archives and Halting State are good places to start.
