Broken Angels by Richard K. Morgan
4.0

This was actually quite good - definitely more hard/"straight" sci-fi than Altered Carbon, but with much of the same joy of discovery. Morgan has rather a knack for all this worldbuilding stuff. In this, we get the Martian progenitors fleshed out a bit more, though still with ample mystery. Much of the book reads like Starship Troopers meets Aliens by way of Stargate with light hints of Lovecraftian atmosphere. Definitely a fun read; looking forward to the next.
