Altered Carbon is set in the 24th century when the human mind has been digitized, and the soul itself is transferable from one body ("sleeve") to the next. Takeshi Kovacs, a former elite interstellar warrior known as an Envoy whose cortical stack has been stored for 250 years, is given the choice to spend the rest of time in prison for his crimes, or solve a single murder in a world where technology has made death nearly obsolete.
Some are fun, some are procedurals disguised as sci fi and some are just trying to get answers: who killed JFK in the end? And can any one of these characters change the past, the future, the present? A good Saturday afternoon awaits you!
