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.
