Maybe it's because of the language switch (Read firts book in english, this book in swedish), but I felt like I had a hard time getting into the story due to the complicated and confusing words used.

Meh. The first book in the series wins points for originality with it's cool technological, psychological, and philosophical systems. This book doesn't add much to the world, and while I read the whole thing I found myself skimming over whole pages. Meh.

Arguably first one is better, but I'll read the third for sure

A little slow to get going, but an incredible sequel to Altered Carbon, in a completely different way.
Gone is the detective noir, and in place is a "getting the team together" type corporate/military espionage and action piece. It transforms around halfway through the book into a Ringworld and/or Rendezvous with Rama type discovery of ancient technology and culture.
Also highly recommended.
