In the shadowy depths of the 25th century, where the dead are merely paused and human consciousness flits from one body to the next, Takeshi Kovacs finds himself entangled in a web of treachery and deceit that stretches across the stars. No longer a detective, Kovacs now sells his skills as a soldier to the highest bidder, navigating a world where loyalty is a commodity and survival is anything but guaranteed. "Broken Angels" propels us into a maelangetic universe where the past is as mutable as the flesh, and the line between the oppressor and the oppressed blurs. As a revolution simmers on a distant planet, Kovacs is lured into a perilous odyssey in search of a prize beyond imagination: an ancient alien spacecraft, whispered to lie in ruins on a battlefield shrouded in lethal radiation. With a motley crew of resurrected warriors, Kovacs must confront the remnants of a Martian civilization and a landscape littered with the booby-traps of advanced technology. Armed with his lethal instincts and an arsenal fit for an army, Kovacs is ready to face the unknown. But in a game with stakes this high, the enemy is never who you expect, and the price of victory might just be his soul.

I have vivid memories of the [Altered Carbon] book(s). - Zooko Wilcox
A preoccupation with the next world clearly shows an inability to cope credibly with this one.
