Woken Furies is the first of Richard Morgan's novels since Altered Carbon that fully lives up to that debut. In it, Morgan further fleshes out his flawed protagonist, Takeshi Kovacs, by delving into life on Kovacs's homeworld. It expands on the Quellist doctrine only hinted at in the previous books, and fully satisfies any Morgan fan's expectation of continuous action, violence, double-crosses, and plot twists. It's a terrific addition to Richard Morgan's rapidly expanding body of work.
