I don't know if it's one of my favorite books, but Daemon is really fun.

Unlike a lot of scifi it doesn't shy away from getting deep into technical details. But unlike most writers he doesn't get tech concepts wrong or use jagon in awkward, non-standard ways. It's obvious that computer tech is is native to him.

Indeed, so many things in that book point to the future I would like to see. I loved eSpace, and the Shamanistic interface, and the cooperation.
