I've just started Iain M Banks' Use of Weapons, it would be that. I'm catching up with some SF this year and am alternating the Culture novels with others at the moment.

What's the best book you've read recently?

[–] GreyShuck@feddit.uk 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

From this strand of SF, Dennis E Taylor's Bobiverse books are by far the most compelling. It has been a while since I found something that was as unputdownable. I don't know that they are technically the 'best' in terms of literary merit or anything though. I'd say that Dan Simmons Hyperion probably wins on that front.
