The second book, Broken Angels, takes place thirty years after the events of Altered Carbon. Kovacs must navigate a web of intrigue and danger to uncover the truth about Bancroft's murder and the motives behind it. Bancroft believes he was killed but cannot remember anything from the night of his death due to a backup glitch in his stack. Kovacs is brought back to life by a wealthy man named Laurens Bancroft, who wants him to investigate his own murder. In this future, human consciousness is stored on "stacks," small devices implanted in the neck that can be transferred between bodies.
The first book in the series, also titled Altered Carbon, introduces readers to Takeshi Kovacs, a former soldier and criminal who is brought back to life after 250 years in a new body. With a blend of science fiction, mystery, and action, this series is sure to captivate fans of all three genres. Morgan that takes readers on an intense and thrilling journey into a future where technology has changed what it means to be human. I mention all this mostly because at no point in this whole process did I think there was going to be any chance that I might actually like this book.Altered Carbon is a three-book series written by Richard K. So I figured, why not grab a quick read and see what came of it? But the opportunity to dive in was quickly afforded me when I was asked to chaperone for a couple days at a girl’s camp my daughter was attending. So, I picked it up with no real intention to read it any time soon.
The thickness of the spine made it look like it was going to be relatively short too. Then, randomly, I found a copy of the second book in the series at one of the second-hand bookstores that I frequent, and the thing was only two bucks. Still I thanked the reader for the comment and proceeded on my merry way. If I’m being completely honest, I wasn’t too high on the idea, as I’ve never really been overly enamored with Richard K. So, a few months ago, one of our readers commented on my review for ALTERED CARBON ( EBR Review) that I should look into the second and third books in this series.
