The following is a list of works commonly ascribed to the cyberpunk genre of science fiction. While some of these works have effectively become canonized as the archetypal examples of cyberpunk—Neuromancer and Blade Runner spring to mind—the classification of others can be debated. Science-fiction fandom is known for its contentious nature, just as SF writers are often celebrated for inventiveness. Consequently, all categorizations are likely to be incomplete, contested or provisional.
