A review by mcnevinh
Broken Angels by Richard K. Morgan

4.0

More military sf than the first in the series, which was noir sf. Brutal, with a body count that could be considered ridiculous--yet philosophical and anti-war. Takeshi Kovacs is a fascinating anti-hero lead. Female characters are better handled by the author than in the first in the series; at least, no one's description highlights their breasts...! There are many twists and turns, and sometimes the main character's motivation is questionable, if not opaque. So, as with the first, I'm rating it well but with mixed feelings... And I still know I'm going to end up reading the third. And, like the first, the world building is spectacular, complex, and invigorating.
