Well, 'Snow Crash' by Neal Stephenson is a neo noir sci fi novel worth checking out. It's set in a future where the Metaverse exists, and there are all sorts of dark undercurrents. Then there's 'The Windup Girl' by Paolo Bacigalupi. It combines a post - apocalyptic world with noir - ish elements like corruption and moral ambiguity. Oh, and 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?' by Philip K. Dick, which was the basis for Blade Runner, is also a good example.

Sure. 'Altered Carbon' by Richard K. Morgan is a great one. It has a dark, gritty future setting with a complex mystery. Another is 'Blade Runner 2: The Edge of Human' which is based on the Blade Runner universe and has all the elements of neo noir in a sci - fi context. And 'Neuromancer' by William Gibson is a classic in this genre, full of cyberpunk and noir - like elements.

Some good neo noir sci fi novels include 'The City & The City' by China Miéville. It has a really unique concept where two cities exist in the same physical space but are treated as separate entities, and there's a noir - style mystery to solve. Also, 'Hardwired' by Walter Jon Williams has a female protagonist in a seedy future world, full of action and noir - inspired themes.

Yu!” She stomped her feet out of anger. The man grinned, “So what we have no kids? You are my little baby.” Pei Qiqi thought, how did this scene change so fast!
