This week we are covering the book The Ten Percent Thief by Lavanya Lakshminarayan. The book is about a world strictly divided by social hierarchy, and told via interlocking short stories, ranging from humorous to horrific. Your boys were divided on this one, but even if it fell short in places, the book definitely set itself up for a monumental task, and, for the most part, accomplished that task. As with most of our book episodes these days we are thrilled to be joined by Geoff of the Astronomica podcast to help us break it down.

The High Tech Low Life Podcast is a retrospective of cyberpunk fiction across all forms of media. Film, Television, Literature, Games, and Music are all on the table. In each episode we will revisit the property, it's influences, it's prescience, and enshrine it in the chrome and neon halls of Neo Valhalla.
