What's your favorite depiction of cyberspace?

Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.

I read Tad Williams Otherland series in the 90s and I still think back to its depiction of cyberspace regularly. Probably time for a reread as an adult to see if it holds up.
