Morgan actually said it might have been a good idea, but the setting will develop in a different way in future books: he has said he has more books in the BLACK MAN universe - not necessarily involving the same characters - planned for after his fantasy work.Adam Whiteheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11383677312079611311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-8593387381604539102012-09-07T04:04:14.471+00:002012-09-07T04:04:14.471+00:00I nominate Guy Pearce as Kovacs. he was hilarious ...I nominate Guy Pearce as Kovacs. he was hilarious but gritty in Lockout.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-72120106183304606112012-08-02T04:59:34.176+00:002012-08-02T04:59:34.176+00:00Morgan ties all of his books together brilliantly....Morgan ties all of his books together brilliantly... All the Takeshi Kovacs novels (obviously). The fantasy series takes it WAAAAY into the future. Thirteen is pre-Martian discovery. And even Market Forces (which may or may not be a near-future version of the setting) refers to a "far-fetched" novel the protagonist reads in jail that bears striking similarity to Altered Carbon. <br /><br />Can you tell I'm a fan?Daniel C Howardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-20112552055275362822012-06-13T03:57:14.194+00:002012-06-13T03:57:14.194+00:00Will keep an eye en that Ringil/ Kovacs thing, whe...Will keep an eye en that Ringil/ Kovacs thing, when I read that 2nd book in TSR series.<br /><br />Interesting post & comments!El Commutadorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06092501370109622685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-50550443607620593472012-06-13T03:51:39.408+00:002012-06-13T03:51:39.408+00:00Eh!
