“Blade Runner 2: The Edge of Human” e suas continuações em continuidade com “Blade Runner 2049”?

6

Fiquei surpreso ao descobrir que o Blade Runner 2049 não era a primeira sequela do Blade Runner . Essa distinção vai para três romances de K. W. Jeter:

Dado que os romances envolvem Deckard e Rachel, cujos destinos são importantes para Blade Runner 2049 , esses romances se encaixam na continuidade desse filme?

E sim, eu percebo que os artigos da Wikipedia para os romances têm resumos de enredo, mas eu não quero que eles sejam estragados se eu decidir ler os livros.

Não é realmente

O romance Blade Runner 2 acontece logo após o filme Blade Runner. No entanto, no livro (Spoilers da BR2) ...

Rachel is dying, subject to the same four-year lifespan as her replicant brethren. Deckard keeps her in a stasis capsule, waking her up only one day a year (her birthday, IIRC). By the end of the novel, Rachel is dead - her capsule had been shut down while Deckard was away, killing her. The novel ends with Deckard and Sarah Tyrell - heiress to Tyrell Corp and the human template for Rachel - assuming new identities and leaving earth for the off-world colonies. Tyrell HQ is bombed to the ground by the UN in an attempt to kill Sarah and wipe the corporation out.

The second sequel novel deals with Deckard on an orbital city making a film about his adventures - in effect, an in-universe version of the Blade Runner film; Sarah Tyrell has her own adventures as she spirals into insanity. The third novel features neither Deckard nor Sarah prominently; it's about a bounty hunter hired to find Tyrell's owl.

Então, a principal discrepância entre os livros e o filme é ...

Deckard never had the opportunity to have a child.
