Publisher's Summary
Richard Morgan has always been one of our most successful SF authors, with his fast-moving and brutal storylines, blistering plots and a powerful social conscience behind his work.
And now he's back, with his first SF novel for eight years...and it promises to be a publication to remember.
An ex-corporate enforcer, Hakan Veil, is forced to bodyguard Madison Madekwe, part of a colonial audit team investigating a disappeared lottery winner on Mars. But when Madekwe is abducted and Hakan nearly killed, the investigation takes him farther and deeper than he had ever expected. And soon Hakan discovers the heavy price he may have to pay to learn the truth.

Let’s Go Back to the Future
An enjoyable journey through a corrupt minefield of double and triple crosses. Give this one a go. It’s worth the sex scenes for the climax.

Dark Visceral Thriller - good narrator
Richard Morgan is one of the best dark sci-fi writers. He is a descriptive wordsmith of the highest order, while still playing out guttural and gritty characters, visceral fight and sex scenes and always twisted, winding plots of future corps, mobsters and super soldiers.
The narrators voice is gritty which matches the prose. Well read, with slight accents for each character voice, lending realism without breaking stride.

Excellent millieu. Gritty characters.
Love the medical and weapons tech. The violence is fun... die or recover completely! The sex is graphic and the characters work little to get it (like 80s adolescents). There are friends and some character development. The politics is believable and reminiscent of current US and Australian leadership psychopathology. I look forward to more . Like his characters Richard Morgan goes from strength to strength.

Raymond Chandler on Mars!!
As soon as you start listening, it's like "The Big Easy" all over again, except it's the future, it 's Mars, and it's bio-tech. Loved it, gritty, nasty, and great to listen to. Twists & turns everywhere!

Raw and brilliant
If you enjoyed altered carbon you will love Thin Air. Morgan is back at his gritty best with a new dystopian anti hero in an action packed storyline embracing an almost living, seething violence and delivered with a visceral eloquence that has made him my favourite sci.fi writer of the present day.

Self Indulgent Crap
This is a far cry from Altered Carbon.
In this book Richard Morgan has stopped trying to tell a story and has opted for an overly flowery writting style wherein the language used actually obscures the meaning. Its like William Gibson at his worst.
This book is more an attempt at 'Art' than it is a science fiction novel. it might be your kind of story, but it really isnt mine.
its an easy exchange. shame.... The style of Altered Carbon was what I was hoping for not this drivel.
Congrats on using a thesaurus Mr Morgan, shame about the resulting prose.
