Altered Carbon
by Richard K. Morgan
Published by Del Rey.
Published by 2002.
ISBN-10: 0345457684
ISBN-13: 978-0345457684
Description:
In the twenty-fifth century, humankind has
spread throughout the galaxy, monitored by the watchful eye of the U.N. While
divisions in race, religion, and class still exist, advances in technology have
redefined life itself. Now, assuming one can afford the expensive procedure, a
person’s consciousness can be stored in a cortical stack at the base of the
brain and easily downloaded into a new body (or “sleeve”) making death nothing
more than a minor blip on a screen.
Ex-U.N. envoy Takeshi Kovacs has been killed
before, but his last death was particularly painful. Dispatched one hundred
eighty light-years from home, re-sleeved into a body in Bay City (formerly San
Francisco, now with a rusted, dilapidated Golden Gate Bridge), Kovacs is thrown
into the dark heart of a shady, far-reaching conspiracy that is vicious even by
the standards of a society that treats “existence” as something that can be
bought and sold.
Broken Angels
by Richard K. Morgan.
Published by Del Rey.
Published 2003.
ISBN-10: 0345457714
ISBN-13: 978-0345457714
Description:
Cynical, quick-on-the-trigger Takeshi Kovacs,
the ex-U.N. envoy turned private eye, has changed careers, and bodies, once
more . . . trading sleuthing for soldiering as a warrior-for-hire, and helping
a far-flung planet’s government put down a bloody revolution.
But when it comes to taking sides, the only
one Kovacs is ever really on is his own. So when a rogue pilot and a sleazy
corporate fat cat offer him a lucrative role in a treacherous treasure hunt,
he’s only too happy to go AWOL with a band of resurrected soldiers of fortune.
All that stands between them and the ancient alien spacecraft they mean to
salvage are a massacred city bathed in deadly radiation, unleashed
nanotechnolgy with a million ways to kill, and whatever surprises the highly
advanced Martian race may have in store. But armed with his genetically
engineered instincts, and his trusty twin Kalashnikovs, Takeshi is ready to
take on anything – and let the devil take whoever’s left behind.

Woken Furies
by Richard K. Morgan.
Published by Del Rey.
Published 2005.
ISBN-10: 0345499778
ISBN-13: 978-0345499776
Description:
Once a gang member, then a marine, then a
galaxy-hopping Envoy trained to wreak slaughter and suppression across the
stars, a bleeding, wounded Kovacs was chilling out in a New Hokkaido bar when
some so-called holy men descended on a slim beauty with tangled, hyperwired
hair. An act of quixotic chivalry later and Kovacs was in deep: mixed up with a
woman with two names, many powers, and one explosive history.
In a world where the real and virtual are one
and the same and the dead can come back to life, the damsel in distress may be
none other than the infamous Quellcrist Falconer, the vaporized symbol of a
freedom now gone from Harlan’s World. Kovacs can deal with the madness of AI.
He can do his part in a battle against biomachines gone wild, search for a
three-centuries-old missing weapons system, and live with a blood feud with the
yakuza, and even with the betrayal of people he once trusted. But when his relationship
with “the” Falconer brings him an enemy specially designed to destroy him, he
knows it’s time to be afraid.
After all, the guy sent to kill him is
himself: but younger, stronger, and straight out of hell.
Wild, provocative, and riveting, Woken Furies
is a full-bore science fiction spectacular of the highest order – from one of
the most original and spellbinding storytellers at work today.
