As a cornered Kovacs braces for a final showdown in the sky, a new hero emerges and more buried secrets come to light.
ALTERED CARBON is set in a future where consciousness is digitized and stored in cortical stacks implanted in the spine, allowing humans to survive physical death by having their memories and consciousness "re-sleeved" into new bodies. The story follows specially trained "Envoy" soldier Takeshi Kovacs, who is downloaded from an off-world prison and into a combat ready sleeve at the behest of Laurens Bancroft, a highly influential aristocrat. Bancroft was killed, and the last automatic backup of his stack was made hours before his death, leaving him with no memory of who killed him and why. While police ruled it a suicide, Bancroft is convinced he was murdered and wants Kovacs to find out the truth.
Every bad review I have read on this the reviewer admits that they didn't watch the whole season. Well if a professional reviewer admits they didn't bother to watch the whole thing that means they are lying and saying they watched twice as many episodes as they actually saw, and they didn't pay attention to the episodes they watched. This show is a blockbuster. The best Sci Fi I have seen since the original Blade Runner. It deals in real science and real possibility not immortal zombies suffering from a magical virus that raises the dead. The fiction here is not unelievable science, but a reasonable extrapolation of the moral consequences of this kind of technology and an extension of our current obsession with giving godlike wealth to a bunch of idiots and then allowing them to rape pillage and destroy the rest of humanity just for fun.
