James L Cambias recommends

The Extractionist (2022)
Kimberly Unger
"Kimberly Unger's The Extractionist is next-generation science fiction. It fuses cyberpunk attitude with diamond-hard science and alarming plausibility. Unger is one to watch."

Slaves of the Switchboard of Doom (2017)
(Retropolis, book 1)
Bradley W Schenck
"Like a madcap retro-tech collaboration by Terry Pratchett and Isaac Asimov. I loved it!"

Killing Gravity (2017)
(Voidwitch Saga, book 1)
Corey J White
"An intense combination of rip-roaring pulp space opera action and cyberpunk noir sensibility."
