MAJOR NEW NETFLIX SERIES This must-read story is a confident, action-and-violence packed thriller, and future classic noir SF novel from a multi-award-winning author. Four hundred years from now mankind is strung out across a region of interstellar space inherited from an ancient civilization discovered on Mars. The colonies are linked together by the occasional sublight colony ship voyages and hyperspatial data-casting. Human consciousness is digitally freighted between the stars and downloaded into bodies as a matter of course. But some things never change. So when ex-envoy, now-convict Takeshi Kovacs has his consciousness and skills downloaded into the body of a nicotine-addicted ex-thug and presented with a catch-22 offer, he really shouldn¿t be surprised. Contracted by a billionaire to discover who murdered his last body, Kovacs is drawn into a terrifying conspiracy that stretches across known space and to the very top of society.
Takeshi Kovacs Séries
Cette série plonge les lecteurs dans un futur sombre et dystopique où la conscience peut être numérisée et transférée entre les corps, défiant ainsi la mort. Un ancien soldat d'élite, devenu agent spécial, est ressuscité dans un nouveau corps pour résoudre un meurtre de haut profil dans une métropole décadente. Il navigue à travers un réseau complexe de corruption, d'intrigues d'entreprise et de questions existentielles sur l'identité et ce que signifie réellement être en vie. C'est un mélange passionnant de roman noir de détective, d'action cyberpunk et d'exploration philosophique profonde.
