Altered Carbon - Richard Morgan

[Jonaldo]

Reccomend this book to anyone pretty much.

Cyberpunk, Sci-Fi, Detective, Mystery, Thriller kind of book.

If I recall correctly Joel Silver (Matrix/Die Hard) bought the rights to make it into a movie with the backing of Warner Brothers I think.

Reading the sequel (Broken Angels) but not as good

Bought it on Sat - tis good so far, read about 200 pgs or so.

[PR.]

Gah where do you all get this time to do stuff!

 

[Sar]

On the bus, after dinner etc.

 

[leggy]

God dammit I am hooked.


I haven't enjoyed a cyberpunk type book like this since neuromancer.

 

[doh_boy]

I'll have to buy it now

nevermind just add it to the pile (10 I think atm) need to read some linux/vb/c/c++ books first :'(

 

[Sar]

Tis bloody good.

Well worth the time invested

 

[Jonaldo]

Am looking forward to the film, should all the rumours be true.

Great tip - reviews say "James Ellroy meets William Gibson. Amazingly confident world-building, constant action, immensely readable. " Nice one
