Altered Carbon is the novel that put Richard K. Morgan on the map, a fusion of Blade Runner noir and far future hard science tied together with a skull slamming narrative. It’s really that good.

The Subterranean Press edition includes a cover and four full color interior illustrations by Vincent Chong — including that scene in the hotel lobby, done as a foldout. One of the illos will be exclusive to the lettered edition.

Altered Carbon goes to the printer next week and will be available in two unique editions:

Limited: 500 signed numbered hardcover copies: $75
Lettered: 26 signed lettered copies, housed in a custom traycase: $250
