authors influenced by Pynchon

[pynchonoid]

So the hallmarks of "Pynchon influence" seem to be:

-deals with historical fact with a focus on 20th
century history (esp WWII) but within a fictional
context
-deals with science and technology, and how they shape
culture
-obviously learned, with references and allusions to a
vast spectrum of literature and other art works
-encyclopedic
-complex, cast of thousands, difficult to read

What else?  

Thanks for digging up references to those novels.
