ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Altered Carbon is a gritty, futuristic science fiction novel set in a world where human consciousness can be transferred between bodies, allowing for immortality. Takeshi Kovacs, a former soldier turned private investigator, is hired to investigate the apparent suicide of a wealthy businessman, Laurens Bancroft. As Kovacs digs deeper, he uncovers a web of corruption, betrayal, and moral ambiguity, all while grappling with his own disillusionment with the technology that allows the rich to escape death. The novel explores themes of identity, mortality, social inequality, and the ethical consequences of immortality in a dystopian future.
