ALTERED CARBON is an SF novel of extraordinary vision and depth. This lightning fast, breathtakingly violent 26th century thriller carries a weighty cargo of ideas and specu!ative science with graceful ease. It is an awe-inspiring vision of a futurÄ™ living on stolen time.

‘This seamless marriage of hardcore cyberpunk and hard-boiled detective tale is an astonishing first novel.’

THE TIMES

‘I was completely blown away by ALTERED CARBON. From the very first page, it’s a pure adrenalinÄ™ rush of slick, hard-hitting prose, superb characterisation and a plot that grabs you and just won’t let go. Welcome to the Next Big Thing.’ THE ALIEN ONLINE

‘Brilliant. Captures the best of SF and spins it in a new direction that will not only have existing genre fans crying out for morÄ™, but will in all likelihood attract the biggest new readership siÅ„ce William Gibson madÄ™ SF cool again.’ Waterstones ENIGMA magazine

‘A commanding novel.’ SFX

‘A first novel so exciting, so addictive and so bonÄ™-crunchingly in your face that it beggars the need for such virtual reality as it occasionally employs. This is a ceaseless, permanently off-balance sprint through an all-too-grimly-familiar futurÄ™.’ INFINITY PLUS

‘Hits the floor running and then starts to accelerate. An astonishing piece of work. Intriguing and inventive in equal proportions and refuses to let go until the last page.’ PETER F. HAMILTON
