Ep-24 Ink to Film: Altered Carbon (2002 novel) part one

Before the release of the brand-new Netflix series, the guys go
back to the source with Richard K. Morgan’s 2002 postcyberpunk
novel, "Altered Carbon." In part one of their coverage they try
something a little different by beginning with a robust
NON-SPOILER section for anyone curious about the novel but
wanting to stay unspoiled for the series. They begin by talking
about the author’s bio and career, the premise of the novel’s
tech, the background of main character Takeshi Kovacs, and the
mystery surrounding the murder of Laurens Bancroft. They end the
non-spoiler talk with a debate about the philosophical questions
raised by the sleeve-tech in the novel.

In the second part of the episode, they get into plot and
describe Kovacs’ investigation and all the salacious things he
uncovers, discuss some particularly graphic scenes, then end by
theorizing on who will ultimately be revealed to be the murderer.


NON-SPOILER TALK ENDS: 45:47
