Summary

In the future, bodies can be changed like clothes, giving life an entirely new meaning-or lack of meaning. Takeshi Kovacs-once a member of the Envoy Corps, the elite, deadly troops of the Interstellar Earth Protectorate-now finds himself imprisoned . . . both in a jail and in an extremely weak body. When he learns that Envoys he served with in a battle he somehow can't remember have been stolen and sold to one of the richest people in the universe, Kovacs vows to rescue them and get revenge. Leaving behind a staggering body count as he blazes across the galaxy, he wonders why he has a hole in his memory . . . and what secrets that gap holds for understanding his future and himself
