	dragonsworn [book review] - Altered Carbon, Richard Morgan (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Richard Morgan's debut novel is truly a masterpiece of science fiction, a dark and gritty novel set centuries in the future.

		Morgan is careful not to make any giant leaps of development, and bulds his main character nicely right up until the end, with only the slightest falter at the close.

	Richard Morgan Woken Furies Reviewed by Rick Kleffel
		Morgan has given his characters several new shades of experience, of age, and if not exactly wisdom, at least there's an acknowledgement that wisdom is possible.
		Morgan's other characters are equally resonant, from Kovacs' mentor Virginia Vidaura to the members of his robot-hunting hit squad, to the petty gangsters and suave criminals who run Harlan's World.
		Morgan makes the readers feel as if they could understand how these characters might react were they to be living in the here-and-now, so their actions in the there-and-then seem natural.

	The SF Site Featured Review: Altered Carbon
		Richard Morgan is an English language teacher at Strathclyde University.
		Morgan's 25th century Earth is a fascinating construct, both in its vividly-depicted futuristic strangeness and in what, under all the technology, hasn't changed.
		Morgan also does a good job with his characters, who for the most part aren't particularly likeable, but are always understandable.

	Richard Morgan and Democrat Party “Coalition”
		Richard Morgan, the “Republican” Co-Speaker, and the Democrat House Caucus, passed 2003 redistricting plans, prepared in secret, that violated the North Carolina Constitution, in order to gerrymander House districts to ensure the Democrat Party the majority of the House seats for the rest of the decade.
		To protect their unconstitutional plan, Richard Morgan and Democrats even included an unprecedented new law stripping the current judge of venue over the Stephens redistricting case, and limiting the Chief Justice, Republican I. Beverly Lake’s, power to designate judges to hear cases.
		And now Richard Morgan is joining the Democrats in using our tax dollars to defend their unconstitutional redistricting plan, and raising money to defeat Republicans in primaries.

	WOKEN FURIES Richard Morgan Orio
		In 'Woken Furies', Morgan returns to the character of Takeshi Kovacs, the hard-boiled, downtrodden, cynical anti-hero of 'Altered Carbon' and 'Broken Angels'.
		But this is not a happy story, and Morgan is not content with stories of sanitised violence without consequence.
		Morgan has given cyberpunk a new edge, and 'Woken Furies' demonstrates his considerable and developing talent.

	Richard Morgan Broken Angels Reviewed by Rick Kleffel
		Richard Morgan's first novel, 'Altered Carbon', was a home run by any measure.
		Morgan is nothing if not inventive and his aliens are a real change of pace from the usual insectoid menace.
		Morgan is smart enough to know that any sufficiently advanced technology can scare the hell out of even those who wield it.

	Market Forces - Richard Morgan
		The author straddles a fine line, making Chris an utter arsehole who kills for career advancement and manages foreign wars for a job, but who retains just enough of a decent core that we empathise with Carla's struggle to keep him human, to minimise his involvement with the excessive violence of his chosen career.
		The overall structure of the plot is therefore fairly predictable, but Morgan makes each step along the path feel new, with brittle, sharp prose that even manages to become uncomfortable to read when Carla and Chris take their frustrations out on each other.
		This is a Morgan novel, and while his tendency to use violence as punctuation has abetted, that merely serves to heighten the effect when his trademark solution to plot problems is required.

	Richard Morgan: Broken Angels - an infinity plus review
		Morgan's style remains visceral: lots of blood and graphic detail with no pain or misery spared.
		The heroism and glory such a life might appear to involve are largely projected retrospectively onto it by chickenhawks who weren't there at the time and don't know what they're talking about; any genuine heroism that does arise seems inevitably, in Kovacs' eyes, to be counteracted by the pointless suffering and death of innocents.
		Oh, and Morgan acknowledges a debt to John Pilger at the beginning, which can never, ever be a bad thing in my view.

	Amazon.com: Broken Angels: Books: Richard K. Morgan (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Morgan is good at presenting Kovacs's mastery of high-tech weapons and other gadgets, as well as his reactions to disturbing alien artifacts.
		That's because author Richard Morgan continues to construct a fascinating far future in which human personalities are easily moved between a series of bodies via digitization and storage within a "stack," a metal cylinder that is implanted at the base of the head.
		Morgan gives readers the impression that Martians are extinct, although one is not certain and it would not surprise me one bit if they turn up at some point in a future installment of this series.

	Amazon.co.uk: Altered Carbon (Gollancz SF S.): Books (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Richard Morgan's debut SF thriller Altered Carbon isn't for the faint-hearted.
		Morgan clearly associates immortality with hedonism, and it is interesting to see how the more depraved characters satisfy themsleves, given an unlimited timespan to sate these urges.
		The author, Richard Morgan, has a knack of creating appealing tidbits of information that, if he was inclined to explore them, could probably fill entire books of their own.

	Science Fiction Book Reviews
		Richard K. Morgan's first novel, Altered Carbon, shows evidence of few if any of the usual weaknesses we have come to expect from new authors' first novels.
		While Morgan's far-future world mirrors some of the common cliches we've seen in dozens of cyberpunk novels and movies, and the extreme and relentless violence may attenuate the enjoyment of some readers, he has avoided most of the more mindless cliches of the genre.
		I understand that Morgan's second novel, a sequel, will be published soon in his native England, with U.S. publication to follow, and that this first book has already been optioned for a movie.

		Now I have Richard Morgan's narratives in Sailing Away to turn to, and return to, when I want some good fiction spiked with sea salt and humor.

	Market Forces by Richard Morgan - an infinity plus review
		Well, now, it appears as though we have something of a change of pace for Richard Morgan, the author who tore out of nowhere just a couple of years ago with Altered Carbon and Broken Angels, two violent, spiky and intense pieces of sf.
		Morgan's depictions of road battles are truly stunning -- there are just three and none of them last long but all three are virtuoso displays of action writing.
		So, Richard Morgan's third book sees him branching out a little and improving a little upon what he already does so well -- which is to say no incredible surprises here, just another "Certificate 18" killer read that you'd be a fool to miss!

	Science Fiction Weekly Interview
		Morgan: I was at Eastercon in the U.K. and slightly hung-over at the time—suddenly people were coming up to me in corridors and congratulating me. Works way better than aspirin.
		Morgan: Well, it wasn't a million in point of fact, but it was still about ten times more money than I'd ever seen in a single lump before in my life, so I was pretty overwhelmed.
		Morgan: I certainly hadn't planned on Kovacs having a career as a detective—I mean, in Altered Carbon I tried quite hard to show that he's somewhat out of place doing this job.
