	Salon 21st \| The return of the queen of cyberpunk
		Cadigan says she has spent hardly any time at all in MUDs, aside from a brief tour that then-MIT graduate student Amy Bruckman gave her of the MIT MediaMoo.
		Cadigan refused to get drawn further into a discussion of how "Tea From an Empty Cup" reflected the current "now." She's too close to the novel to see it clearly, she says, suggesting that frequently even the author of a novel doesn't know what she is writing about until years afterward.
		Cadigan, who is 46 years old, now lives in London, hangs out in drum-and-bass techno clubs and expresses as much passion for current "harder-edged" rock as her "Synners" characters did for the '60s music that they cut their teeth on.

	Pat Cadigan Interview
		Pat had been reading science fiction since she was about eight, and had begun writing her own stories - "I still have some of those 'novels' I wrote when I was a kid, notebooks full of stuff" - around the same time.
		By the time this book was published, Pat Cadigan's name was well known for her short fiction, and many of her stories had been nominated for awards and included in Best of the Year lists and anthologies.
		Pat's son, Bob, was born in the same year, and Pat, who was working full-time at Hallmark Cards as a writer and editor, began to feel that she was missing out on too much of his early life.

	The SF Site: An Interview With Pat Cadigan
		Pat Cadigan moved to England in 1996, and now lives in North London, with her husband Chris Fowler, and their cat, Calgary.
		Cadigan's fourth novel, Tea from an Empty Cup, came out in 1998, and she is currently working on the next one.
		Cadigan's just trying to crawl up Gibson's ass.' Normally I don't respond to stuff like that, but I feel that it's also good to remind people that when you make statements about someone, it's quite likely that the someone is going to call you on it personally.

		Pat Cadigan has had to endure television and movie ripoffs of some of the details within Mindplayers, but this book remains a classic and the first of its kind.
		Pat Cadigan made her mark in the 1980's as one of the finest writers of science fiction with her legendary short fiction and excellent novels such as "Mindplayers".
		Cadigan does a great job of knitting together the stories she wrote earlier in the eighties about Allie, and giving the whole novel a structure and an overall story arc.

	Splendid: Departments: Bookshelf: Synners
		Cadigan is successful because she does not feel the need to sterilize her technological environment, or have pseudo-Neanderthals in loincloths worshipping the battle-scarred head of Bob's Big Boy.
		Cadigan devised new machines and implements called implants and sockets, which alter the brain and neural pathways in and out of the mind.
		Cadigan takes the concept a little further by broadening the possibilities inherent in the "line out" from the brain, with concepts like Mark's visualizations anchoring the story more solidly in the real world than in the cyber-ephemera of Gibson, Stephenson et al.

	Review: Patterns, Pat Cadigan (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Pat Cadigan is one of the rare authors whose short work I admire, but whose novels I have never read.
		I naturally gravitate towards novels; however, Cadigan is best known as one of the key figures in cyberpunk, a subgenre that generally does not interest me.
		Two particularly good stories are "It Was the Heat," a clever, affectionate, fantastic examination of the sensuality of New Orleans and its effect on a working white-collar mother and wife, and "Roadside Rescue," a clever, nasty, science-fictional examination of the sensuality of an alien and its effect on a distressed motorist.

	Dervish is Digital by Pat Cadigan - review, bibliography, bio
		Cadigan's talent is that she does make it very weird, yet simultaneously, more real than "normal" reality.
		Pat Cadigan was born in Schenectady, New York in 1953, but grew up in Fitchburg, Massachusetts.
		Cadigan is the only person to have won the Arthur C Clarke Award twice, in 1992 for Synners and in 1995 for Fools.

	Review: Synners by Pat Cadigan
		I think Cadigan hits every convention I associate with the genre: a dark future world, blurred lines between reality and on-line worlds, hacking, street punks, corporate destruction of what's good about the world, anti-establishment and anti-authority attitudes, drugs, weird mind trips, and some difficulty figuring out just what the point is.
		There's still a bit too much portability of executable code for realism, and a few magic programs are exempt from all the rules and start moving arbitrarily through the network, but there's at least a plot-driven explanation for some of that.
		The main characters were frequently high on a wide variety of drugs, sometimes intentionally and sometimes not, and Cadigan spends a lot of time describing their altered perceptions.

		Pat Cadigan's intelligent and compelling foray into a near-future where you can score a little paranoia from the local neurosis peddler, or even trade your personality in for another, is, like Roger Zelazny's The Dream Master, a brilliant exploration of the nature of the mind itself.
		Pat Cadigan was born in 1953 in Schenectady, New York and grew up in Massachusetts, attending the University of Massachusetts.
		Pat Cadigan first introduced us to Doré Konstantin in Tea For An Empty Cup, which Salon magazine called a `tightly plotted, crisply written novel that fits the classic noir mystery template set down by the likes of Raymond Chandler more comfortably than anything William Gibson has ever written’.

		First of all, Pat Cadigan at her worst is better than 95% of the science fiction authors out there.
		Cadigan is at her best when exploring the nature of identity and its fallibilty in regards to technological communities - it's what she did in both "Synners" and "Fools" (both of which are better, more substantive books than this one).
		Cadigan is an amazing talent, a great storyteller - if she ever builds us a world as variegated as her plots and the technology being utilized, and tries to keep it relevant to modern-day readers, she's going to turn cyberpunk on its head.

	Review \| Patterns (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		It was a superlative anthology filled with memorable stories, and Cadigan's "Angel" was one of the stand-outs.
		In his typical hyperbolic Ellisonian style, he shouts the author's praises so highly that unless the book that follows is the most explosive and heart-shattering book ever published, no reader can be anything but let down.
		Readers of Cadigan's novels -- all of which are written in the cyberpunk mode for which she is best known -- won't be disappointed with the two cyberpunk tales in this collection.

	Pat Cadigan: Tea From an Empty Cup (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Pat Cadigan is the master of cyberpunk that makes you go "Huh?" Her latest novel, Tea From an Empty Cup, is a stylish, sharply written novel that starts out as a locked-room murder mystery and turns into a noirish game of virtual hide-and-seek.
		Cadigan is still the master of the cutting one-liner, but the tone of this novel is so dark that it's witty without being funny.
		Cadigan plays this for laughs, with billing reminders and surcharges that pop up constantly during play.

		Alfred Bester and Cordwainer Smith, whose stories Cadigan selected to appear at the front of the anthology, wrote the vast majority of their work years before the CM was even a vision.
		Cadigan even explains that Bester was a source of inspiration for the 1960s Science Fiction New Wave, which explicitly disables him from being a part of the CM, especially when he, like James Tiptree, Jr.
		Cadigan perhaps anticipates remarks such as mine, creating an artificial group of defendants, who claim that "Cyberpunk itself is hardly anything new (Cadigan x)." It is here that she justifies her inclusion of Bester and Smith and the other previous era's authors.

		Cadigan's writing is crisp and tight as ever in this brisk cyber adventure, as told through Konstantin's wry observations.
		In Pat Cadigan's previous novel, Tea from an Empty Cup, she introduced readers to Dor Konstantin, a homicide detective tracking down a murder leading to AR (Artificial Reality).
		If this is a reflection of Cadigan's own feelings about cyberpunk, perhaps she should move on to something that excites her before she (and the reader) dies of ennui.

		And Cadigan said, in this coffee bar let there be an unnamed Japanese guy trying to sell an unnamed white guy a gel cap containing a creation myth distilled from millennia of racial memory.
		Cadigan may lack Lucius Shepard's elegance or William Gibson's startling imagery, but she has her own hard-edged virtuosity.
		After an initial wowie, zowie period over the deftness with which she creates worlds existing within worlds that are mirroring worlds, the reader may feel somewhat bludgeoned by such virtuosity.

	Synners by Pat Cadigan \| PopMatters Book Review
		Author Pat Cadigan's amazing prescience at how our world would evolve within a few short years won her the coveted Arthur C. Clarke Award in 1992, as well as again in 1995 for her book Fools, distinguishing her as the only person to win this award twice.
		Cadigan has crafted a very intricate and well-plotted work that should appeal to fans of cyberpunk, sci fi and even mystery/suspense.
		This is particularly interesting in light of my research, which revealed that Cadigan earned her living for ten years writing Hallmark greeting cards, of all things.

	The Ultimate Cyberpunk edited by Pat Cadigan - an infinity plus review
		Cadigan doesn't even hint at the diversity of intriguing fiction that evolved from cyberpunk.
		Editor Cadigan's introduction is a similarly off-putting example of self-love.
		She wastes lots of verbiage plugging her own work and posturing, but fails to actually say anything interesting about either the genre or the anthology.

		Author Pat Cadigan has created a wonderful premise.
		Perhaps emulating the complexity and interwoven nature of the web, Cadigan entwines Konstantin in a confusing and reality-shifting world--although often with the unfortunate result of confusing the reader as well.
		Fans of cyberpunk fiction will enjoy Cadigan's dystopic, yet somehow hopeful views of the future.
