In my opinion, 'Ubik' is also a strong contender. The way it plays with the concept of reality being manipulated, perhaps by some powerful corporate or technological force, is very cyberpunk. There are strange technological phenomena, and the characters are constantly in a state of confusion as to what is real and what isn't, which is a common theme in cyberpunk.

Definitely 'A Scanner Darkly'. The story's focus on a world filled with paranoia, surveillance, and the breakdown of the self due to drug use and the over - reaching arms of the state or some powerful entity is very much in line with cyberpunk. It shows a future where people are losing their grip on reality and their identities, which is often seen in cyberpunk settings.

The Public Safety System said, "When darkness falls, close your eyes. Monsters, open your eyes. Werewolves, make your kill. Vampires, make your kill. Tengu, make your kill. Corporate security, make your kill. Mercenaries, make your kill. Gangsters, make your kill. Counter-terrorism squads, make your kill. Cyberpsychotics, make your kill. Biochemically Transformed, make your kill. Demons of Hyperspace, make your kill. Zerg of a different dimension, make your kill. Sorcerers of the Abyss, make your kill. Followers of a Million Concealed Charms, make your kill..." The Public Safety System said, "Dawn has broken, and no one died last night. The cyberpsychotics has killed all the monsters. Those who are alive, please speak." Li Pan said, "First of all, I'm not a cyberpsychotic, I'm just a little too spiritually aware."

Another great one is 'Ubik'. It has a really mind - bending plot that keeps you guessing. The story is set in a world where reality seems to be constantly shifting and the concept of what is real is deeply questioned. There are a lot of layers to this novel, from the characters' relationships to the overall mystery of Ubik itself.
