Seconded. Granted, my sample size is pretty minuscule, but still.
And as an extra reason why LW folks might be interested in Rajaniemi’s books, the second book of the series, The Fractal Prince, mentions something called “extrapolated volition” being at the heart of one of the cultures in the novels’ setting.
One of Rajaniemi’s short stories (not in either of these books) even had a mention of a “Coherent Extrapolated Volition” and a brief description of what that meant, IIRC.
The Quantum Thief is pretty great post singularity fiction
