Why that Culture novel, precisely? I don’t recall it as one of the better ones.
Admittedly, I’m unusual in that my favourite Culture story is The State of the Art. General Pinochet Chili Con Carne! Richard Nixon Burgers! What’s not to like?
It’s one of my favourites, and I also think it’s a good one to start with. But so is The State of the Art. My favourite by him is Feersum Endjinn.
