If you want philosophical why not cut the middleman and read some philosophy?

the book that blew my mind more than the whole dune saga or any cyberpunk books or anything i have read before or since was nietzsche's "beyond good and evil". the earlier stuff can be a bit adolescent, later on i think he goes bananas (though will to power was never a finished book).

read the walter kaufmann translation. it's great, has good notes, etc.

oh and unlike other philosophy books this one is neither dry as fuck nor incomprehensibly abstruse-- actually it's got plenty of laughs.

actually, come to think of it--- if you like shit with superheroes and magic animals and shit like that (i don't), then you could read the zarathustra!
