ALTERED CARBON BY RICHARD K MORGAN

ALTERED CARBON BY RICHARD K.MORGAN is one of those books with a main character who you either like alot or really hate!  This review is not of my first read of it but a re read of several times.  I find the character brash, rude, gruff & very unlikable to the "people" around him.  He has been re-sleeved (no one dies unless you are a Catholic or are "erased") in this timeline,to find out the facts of the death of a very very wealthy & technically old man named Laurens Bancroft.  His money buys everything,including immortality, and when his latest body(sleeve) turns up dead its up to our main character Takesi Kovvacs to find out if it was murder, suicide or something else. Set in 25th century Earth you will find either you like Takesi or hate his guts!
