Pollen
In his award-winning first novel, Vurt, Jeff Noon explored the urban future with a dimension-bending feather called Vurt, a new world where dreams and drugs seep into reality. Now there is much more at stake: one mysterious murder, new pollen deaths daily, and a city in desperate need of saving.

Ooft. Mind-bending. One of the Vurt ecosystem books.
On one level, its a cop chase. But it soon transforms into a psychedelic, mind-altering, lunatic and lovely ride, with the author firmly in the driving seat. I can see why this is referred to as cyberpunk, but it’s nowhere close to the limitations of that genre. Zombies, criminals, Vurt, and all manner of weirdnesses come together to set your synopses a-popping.
