Second in my list of #ComfortBooks is the #ArabeskTrilogy by #JonCourtneyGrimwood that starts with #Pashazade, a #Cyberpunk #AlternateHistory #MurderMystery novel set in the North African free city of El Iskandriya in a world where the Ottoman Empire is still a world power.

While I love the cyberpunk classics like #Neuromancer, Heavy Weather and Snow Crash, the Arabesk Trilogy is the one I return to most often, with accidental hero 'Raf and his speed fueled fox companion

This is also the series with references that introduced me to Godspeed You Black Emperor and Neil Young's Rust Never Sleeps. Thank you JCG
