Download Broken Angels Audiobook

" Overall it was an entertaining read and I enjoyed it. That said, it really was just so much cinematic fluff - an action movie in book form. Nothing wrong with that as long as you take it for what it is: a "guilty pleasure" type of book. I think I somewhat preferred Morgan's first Takashi Kovacs novel, "Altered Carbon", as it was more character driven but this was a worthy sequel. "

" A huge let down from Altered Carbon to this. I STRUGGLED to get through this... just absolutely nothing at all sucking me in. And then when things really did finally start to happen, I just didn't care. I'd go into specifics and spoilers but it doesn't seem necessary. I won't be bothering to read the third in this series. Really disappointed because I LOVED Altered Carbon. Ugh "

" I really hesitated over the 3rd star for this. I liked his more recent The Steel Remains, and can see his writing has matured since then. Much of this would have benefited from a red pencil to tighten up the story and remove some of the almost irrelevant parts. Some good concepts, but the battle scenes were a a bit unlikely, and the ability of the hero to sustain damage and carry on was a bit stretched even with the technology. Some of the characters were interesting but he didn't develop them enough. Many of the rest were forgettable. "

" A slow start, but worth sticking with. I especially love how it's the women who can actually fix things/save the day while the men are off beating each other senseless. "

" serious let down after altered carbon "

" not a patch on the first one "

" Love this book. A great sequel to Altered Carbon, yet a whole new story on it's own. "

" Where Altered Carbon mined noir, Broken Angels mines the war and espionage tale. "

" Decent follow up but didn't have the same depth as Altered Carbon. In all fairness that is an incredibly high bar. "

" took awhile to get into this book - but worth it in the end, so hang in there if you find the first 1/4 of the book missing the zing of book 1. "

" Not as good as the first, but still great "

" Not as good as Altered Carbon but still a solid read. "

" Better than the first novel. Some plot arcs are more or less superfluous. Less playful, more brutal; the parts of the book which resonate are the ones which offend. In that sense it's a fairly unpleasant book, but since that was the point I have to say well done. "

" Love these books. Wonderful concept! "

" Second in series every bit as good as the first. Going for third soon. Highly recommend. "

" Not as good as the first, but a very interesting futuristic military fiction piece. "

" Third re-read. Says something. I'd never re-read a book (outside of academia) until Richard K. Morgan came along. "

" Maybe I'm getting stingy and simplier in my old age, but way too much gratuity in this book for me to give it 3 stars. And all the Martian crap at the end was just confusing.

However, just one book in the trilogy left so I'll throw it on my list to read at some point. "

" You've really got to be a fan to feel that this one didn't drag horribly. I am now not a fan. "

" Loved it! Its nice to find non Gibson quality cyber punk. "

" I love the attitude of the main character. A bunch of good ideas in here. Same universe as the first book. Good stuff. "
