Chronicle In Pursuance Of Books Woken Furies (Takeshi Kovacs #3)

This is high action, ideas driven noir SF of the highest order. Morgan has already established himself as an SF author of global significance.

Takeshi Kovacs has come home. Home to Harlan's World. An ocean planet with only 5 percent of its landmass poking above the dangerous and unpredictable seas. Try and get above the weather in anything more sophisticated than a helicopter and the Martian orbital platforms will burn you out of the sky.

And death doesn't just wait for you in the seas and the skies. On land, from the tropical beaches and swamps of Kossuth to the icy, machine-infested wastes of New Hokkaido the hard won gains of the Quellist revolution have been lost. The First Families, the corporations and the Yakuza have a stranglehold on everything.

Embarked on a journey of implacable retribution for a lost love, Kovacs is blown off course and into a maelstrom of political intrigue and technological mystery as the ghosts of Harlan's World and his own violent past rise to claim their due. Quellcrist Falconer is back from the dead, they say and hunting her down for the First Families is a savage young Envoy called Kovacs who's been in storage.

Critique Based On Books Woken Furies (Takeshi Kovacs #3)

Actual rating: 4.25I heard once that in Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai, the weather--so starkly and powerfully portrayed--is often considered a character in the movie as much as any of the actors.In exactly the same way, Woken Furies is less about the protagonist, Takeshi Kovacs, than it is about the world and the culture of his dystopic future. Morgan's world-building is so overpowering that Kovacs isn't so much a character in the novel as a journalist, bringing us a report from the front lines

The third in Richard Morgan's Takeshi Kovacs series and my least favorite.Somewhat paradoxically, however, I also found it the most complex. This book is extremely bleak, and in a manner that's not readily apparent.While the protagonist Takeshi Kovacs is your typical angry, jaded, world-weary ex-soldier in both Altered Carbon and Broken Angels, his personality is livened by a sense of humor. This liveliness is almost entirely absent here in Woken Furies, which is the only book set on Kovacs'

Some times a book doesnt get to be judged as a stand-alone work. When its the third book in a loosely connected series featuring the same lead character, what happens in books one and two are going to affect book threes read. After enjoying Broken Angels (second in the series, review here), I immediately requested Woken Furies from the library. Sadly, it was a serious disappointment both as a series installment and as a stand-alone read. Be warned: this is a long review, mostly because I want to

Who would've thought that Quellcrist Falconer could get so tedious? I liked this book, but I'm pretty happy to be done with the Takeshi Kovacs saga. What happened to the badass I could get behind from the first book? Now all he does is yell at people & be pissed off & get laid inexplicably. He redeemed himself a bit at the end of this one (before Jad sort of blew all that burgeoning humanity to pieces), so I guess I can feel a little better about him than I did, but I'm still relieved

2015: And then the end never stops twisting about ... back-stabbingly beautiful. I love the way he describes technologies in his future vision of humanity. I am going to miss Takeshi Kovacs, I may even have to read the books all over again.2018: Did get around to the reread. I had a harder time with the re-read than I anticipated because I did remember just enough to take away the major reveals. However that makes it possible to focus on other aspects of the books more. I like the writing style,

Takeshi Kovacs goes on a voyage of self-discovery ... Well, OK, maybe not so much. But the book opens with a very young Kovacs waking up in a new sleeve, only to discover that he's been decanted from a centuries-old back-up recording to hunt down the Kovacs we've met in the previous books; then we join "our" Kovacs as he's in the process of causing a ruckus and trying to retrieve his original body.The setting this time is Kovacs' original home planet, Harlan's World. He's been here for a while

3.5*The writing and the worldbuilding are still stunning. The plot though is spread too thin and suffers from uneven pacing and too many secondary characters/various groups. Isa, Segesvar, Murakami people from the past that clearly mean a lot to Kovacs, but we dont get enough backstory to really connect and care. Initial confusion and not knowing Takeshis motivation for the bigger part of the book doesnt help immersion either. I liked the ending and the time Takeshi spent with De-Coms. I liked
