      If you think that is bad, take a look at the book "Metagame" by Sam Landstrom. The story itself is a bit far out there, but the parallels to what we see coming are a bit frightening.

      Scifi wise I would like to add Metagame by Sam Landstrom to the mix. It is a relatively recent and enjoyable dystopian story about a gamified future. I liked all of your recommendations that I know, so I will probably try some of the others.
