Consider Phlebas Emily Katz Anhalt 'Life Stories'A stunning new reissue edition of the debut 'Culture' novel from the awesome imagination of Iain M. Banks, the modern master of science fiction. A universe where sentient spaceships argue philosophy and AI Minds run utopias with unnerving charm. This is science fiction at its most playful, provocative and gloriously inventive. All of the novels in the Culture series are stand alone stories and are not narratively linked. War rages across the galaxy.
