Cyberthrillers and other fiction

[Pogi]

Just finished reading a pre-publication copy of Jeffrey Deaver's new thriller "THE BLUE NOWHERE". While the book has arguably one of the best plots I have read in the so-called Cyberthriller genre, it is also riddled with more glaring, obvious, improbable, impossible, ridiculous and downright hilarious technical mistakes than I care to mention here. If someone wants to start a thread on the errors, go ahead, it would make for an interesting topic.

But to to real reason for this post... what are YOUR recommendations for a good Cyberthriller read that is both well-written and technically correct and plausible?

Not sure if they are classified as thrillers, but I like William Gibson who does the hard core CyberPunk novels.

My Favourite is Michael Moorcock. He writes mostly Dark Fanatasy, but one of his books has referrances to CyberSpace, Black Holes, and other Cyberstuff, long before these were topics. His books were mostly written in the '50s-'60s

That would be it, I just couldn't remeber that last name.

Sorry, I have a lot of time on me hands. Am home sick. Also, have vast amounts of movie knowledge in my head. Don't know why.

Thanks for the suggestions, but I was thinking more in non sci-fi vein.
