Market Forces by Richard K. Morgan
3.0
Wow, harsh ending.
I like this author a lot, I love his gritty and harsh anti-hero type characters and the blow 'em up, beat 'em up, shoot 'em up worlds they live in.
Chris Faulkner is my least favorite of his characters so far, not because he is a complete and utter bastard but more because he has these qualms of conscience, like he's a good guy who didn't mean for any of this to happen and isn't quite sure how it did.
The idea of 'Langley' now being contract killers was highly amusing, especially as they are also supposed to be highly unreliable and inclined to taking out innocent victims along with the intended targets. The entire concept of a market based off the rebel conflicts around the world was fascinating and 'road rage' as a way to further your career was brutal.
Morgan does not write books for the squeamish but they are a whole lot of action packed fun.
