Altered Carbon

by Richard K. Morgan · Takeshi Kovacs series

In a future where consciousness is digitized and bodies are interchangeable sleeves, ex-soldier Takeshi Kovacs is downloaded into a new body to investigate a wealthy man's suspicious death. On Earth, centuries after leaving it, Kovacs navigates corruption, virtual torture, and corporate warfare in a society where immortality belongs only to the rich. Morgan delivers noir-soaked cyberpunk with ultraviolent action and existential dread.
