Consider Neuromancer by William Gibson. Recommended by 6 sources.
“Neuromancer opens at high speed: terse sentences, noir atmosphere, and worldbuilding dropped as image-heavy fragments rather than spelled-out explanation. Its useful part is concentrated atmosphere — layered sensory detail and economical action that make cyberspace feel immediate without long exposition. Its main limitation is deliberate opacity: invented slang, abrupt scene cuts, and characters who often remain coolly distant can leave the plot feeling elliptical and some emotional moments thin. Best read focused and willing to re-read passages for payoff.”
