Review title: Lots of fun
Product review: Richard K Morgan very capably continues the adventures of Takeshi Kovacs in this sequel to 'Altered Carbon'. The plot of this instalment is actually a tad more lucid -- if also a tad more broken -- than the first novel; and the shift from gritty urban detective Takeshi Kovacs to military space-opera mysterious alien archology Takeshi Kovacs makes for a novel with a rather different (and, to my personal tastes, at least, refreshingly so) feel. The plot lags a bit and snags on a few thorns, but never in a boring way; the writing is vivid and engaging throughout; and the characterizations are quite competent. Typographical errors and faux pas were few. In sum: a solid and thrilling read.
