Very good book by a great writer of SciFi. Lesser known in the U.S., but just due to original publisher. Bank's writing, whit, and deep thought on sociology of worlds is unmatched. Great humor.

Iain Banks created the entire modern genre of space opera back in the 80's with the publication of 'Consider Phlebas' He created what is now common in almost all modern space opera works by the genius of neal asher, alastair reynolds, tony ballantyne - all of the current day greats. This is his first 'culture' book in 8 years and it doesn't disappoint and it shows why he is still at the top of the literary SF space opera genre. If you love SF, buy this, it is that simple. It is a masterwork.
