So I watched Altered Carbon recently and it had so much of the things I love (Sci-fi, Noir ect) that I got on board despite the fact that I'm not usually a big fan of transhumanism. Having finished the series I read the next book in the series:

Broken Angels - By Richard Morgan

Set on a war torn world it follows the ex everything hero on a mission to try to salvage a derelict Martian warship. It's deception of Xenoarchaeolgy (and its internal politics) was particularly interesting. The action was well written and the atmosphere tense. There was some questionable sexual content that I found a little problematic but overall I found it very satisfying. The twists and turns of loyalty and betrayal which underlined the whole plot were particularly well executed and the pay off at the end was fantastic.

It is a very different version of Takeshi Kovachs than you get in the Altered Carbon show, but even as a standalone hero he works perfectly well.
