Have you read "The Machine Stops"?
E.M. Forster predicts the internet and foretells how life might develop by the end of the 21st century. In 1928.
Add William Gibson - read all his stuff

Stuart Maconie's books are good too, humorous stuff like Bill Bryson, but better.
I wanted something easy going after reading a ton of heavy stuff and this fit the bill perfectly. Basically, a story of a couple of rookie coppers and it's a police procedural except the London of the book has echoes of previous times, with ghosts, and war-time settings, all mixed in with the present day. I liked the way the supernatural elements have to be played down so everything looks normal on the surface. Fun book. There's a series and I'll be reading more.
Jasper Fforde, Eyre Affair and so on. tell you what else I enjoyed in a kind of a Neil Gaiman theme, The Borrible trilogy by Michael de labretti

tho billed as a teens book, so was Pullmans dark materials series, and it's almost as good in some repects. Or tom sawyer is a childrens book.
I'm not locked in here with you, you are locked in here with me.
I'm guessing you've read the lastest Legion book by Scarrow and the new Saxon one by Cornwell. I also liked his Arthur books (warlord? series).
