Postcyberpunk is a kind of science fiction literature which takes ideas from the cyberpunk genre, a type of storytelling which includes futuristic settings with advanced technology, and adds to them new elements. In postcyberpunk stories, characters tend to be highly ambitious and work hard to achieve their goals, often going against the rules and conventions of the world around them. While postcyberpunk stories often use advanced technology, the stories typically focus more on the characters' personal journeys rather than on the technology itself.
