Also, at risk of dragging this up again, Altered Carbon is a sci-fi book. The core plot is anchored around the sci-fi concepts. Unlike, for example, Alien.
Quite strongly disagree. It’s essentially nothing more than
ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!
a locked room murder mystery
which is a plot as old as Chandler. And it has strong sub-themes of

the dehumanisation of extreme wealth and power, the games played by the wealthy to amuse themselves, and the perilous state of normal people caught up in those games
which, again, is 100% classic noir. It’s a predominately noir story in a sci-fi setting.
