Altered Carbon, Netflix

Looks interesting.
I didn't see any airplanes in it but a flying car is just as good. ;)
I gotta check whether they have this maybe on Vamazon Prahm Veedio. :)
 
I have read several of Richard Morgan's books, including "Altered Carbon". His books are good but he has an interesting writing style. You really have to pay attention because he talks about things that he doesn't explain until later.

"Altered Carbon" is the first book in a 3 part series. He has another book "Thirteen" which is a standalone novel, and it is good too.

Without straining, I can read most novels (like Tom Clancy's) in about a week to 10 days. For some reason, it took me over a month to get through each of Morgan's novels. I'm not sure why, but I did feel like I really got my money's worth from his books.

I'll get around to watching the Netflix series to see how well it tracks the novels.
 
Looks good from the trailer. Very Sci-Fi Noir (Blade Runner-esque) in look and feel. Also, it looks like Amazon just released Electric Dreams based on Philip K. Dick's short stories.
