Well, I'm certainly not going to nominate an ebook I can't read in my own country, even if it would be a re-read of something I read years ago in a paper edition.

Yep. Like allowing a book that clearly doesn't fit the month's topic be nominated and then voted on.

I'll nominate Altered Carbon by Richard K. Morgan.

Quote:
In a society in which death has been rendered practically obsolete, suicide and murder take on different significances. After a particularly brutal offing, former UN envoy Takeshi Kovacs finds himself "resleeved"--that is, his consciousness has been put in a new body--and hired as a private investigator by Laurens Bancroft, one of twenty-fifth-century society's old rich in Bay City (formerly San Francisco).

Updated to this point.

It looks like we have 7 fully nominated choices - listed in post #1.

Please let me know if there are any errors, or it stands as it is.

Oh My! This is already a very difficult choice. Maybe I'll wait and go with the consensus.
