Book Summary Information

Book Reviews of Altered Carbon

Book Review: A smashing read from the word go and doesn't let up at all.
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a joyous book to read and has an all encompassing feel to it. The idea of sleeves is excellent and portrayed very well and you get a real feeling for Kovacs' Character (and all the supporting cast).

The action is well described in scintillating details with a nice mix of gore, bloodiness, eroticism and grime and the level of expectation is superbly carried. Some people may find the torture and headblasting descriptions a little "colourful" but to me they really added value! I want my a cortical stack when NOW! Anyone got a spare body (joke !).

I bought this book yesterday and haven't put it down yet - my wife and daughter are getting a bit peeved that they can't get my attention!

I'd put this up there with anything by Peter F. Hamilton or John Courtenay Grimwood as my faves of the 21st century.

More please! Oh, yeah, go and buy it - you won't regret it.
