The proxnet/farnet/allnet ‘reading function’ as depicted in Dan Simmons books Illium and Olympos is in my opinion the hands-down best vision for an ideal AR application.

@ Johannes – added the Golden Age, looks very AR.

@culturecrammer – Vurt looks a bit more VR (a cross between Clockwork Orange and Neuromancer is a description I saw). So unless someone else has an opinion, I’ll leave it off for now.

@Blair – when I get home from work tonight I’m going to reread VL so I can get the AR part right for the description.

This may be stretching the VR / AR continuum a bit, but John C. Wright’s Golden Age trilogy takes place almost continuously in an AR world. The books are The Golden Age, The Phoenix Exultant, and The Golden Transcendence.

@ David – in the wiki it lists it as a collection of a few novellas. Could go either way I guess.

@ Blair – It’s been so long since I’ve read Virtual Light (and I’ve probably read it 3-4 times), its hard to remember. Give me a good reason to read it a 5th time then.

I’ll add all those later today when I’m more awake.

You hit Gibson, but missed “Virtual Light,” a very-AR book.

Add Lady of Mazes by Karl Schroeder, where AR is taken to extremes.

Oh Accelerando is a great book I forgot about that. It’s not really a short story though, it is in fact quite long.
