Fifty years after the events of ALTERED CARBON, Takeshi Kovacs is serving as a mercenary in the Procterate-sponsored war to put down Joshuah Kemp's revolution on the planet Sanction IV. He is offered the chance to join a covert team chasing a prize whose value is limitless - and whose dangers are endless. Here is a novel that takes mankind to the brink.

A breakneck-paced crime thriller, ALTERED CARBON took its readers deep into the universe Morgan had so compellingly realised without ever letting them escape the onward rush of the plot. BROKEN ANGELS melds SF, the war novel and the spy thriller to take the reader below the surface of this future and lay bare the treacheries, betrayals and follies that leave man so ill-prepared for the legacy he has been given: the stars. This is SF at its dizzying best: superb, yet subtle, world-building; strong yet sensitive characterisation; awesome yet believable technology, thilling yet profound writing. Richard Morgan is set to join the genre's world-wide elite.

Not as thought provoking as book one. Also the audio is terrible, every chapter has about 3 words cut off at the start.

Not as thought provoking as book one.

Technology sufficiently advanced to seem like magic forms the background to a search for meaning in a world where even death is no longer real.

This is nowhere near as good as Altered Carbon.

I won't bother with any more from this author. It seems he has no idea what made his first book really good, because there is none of that in this one.

The narrator is okay, apart from the occasional jarring mispronunciation. His character voices are a real mix of good and bad.

Pretty average.

If you enjoyed Altered Carbon this will not disappoint. Fast paced and full of action, you’ll need to keep your wits about you as this story gets quite immersive. Todd does a great job once again narrating and really brings out Takeshi as an interesting main character.

Morgan does it again
