Ooh, I didn't know there were books! I will read them after I've
finished the TV series. I can comment on that, even though I haven't
read the books yet. First I heard of it, I tried it, and my
impression was: Wannabe Blade Runner meets wannabe Dark Matter, and
fails to live up to either, so I stopped watching. A couple of years
later, I gave it another chance (possibly because of a comment on
here, not sure), and persevered past the point I had quit earlier. I
warmed to it, and ended up liking it. So now just at the beginning
of Series 3, looking forward to what happens next.<br>
<br>
If anyone else was put off by the weak Blade Runner vibe at the
beginning, I can say it gets much better. Worth persevering with.<br>
<br>
So thanks, Bill, for alerting me to the fact that there are books. I
already want to read the Altered Carbon books that I never bothered
with before, but now have an interest in since seeing that TV
series.<br>
