Hugonauts: The Best Sci-Fi Books of All Time

Altered Carbon - Wild tech, visceral action, and an unhinged plot!

Episode Summary

Richard K. Morgan's breakout novel got the full Netflix treatment - but is it worth reading?

Episode Notes

If you like gritty cyberpunk settings, a page-turning, action-driven plot, and a lot of visceral explorations of violence and sexuality, this one's for you. If you're looking for deep characters, a carefully crafted plot, or philosophical ideas, this might not be your next read.

As always, no spoilers until the end when we get into the full plot explanation and discussion.
