Verdict: The Player of Games is seriously impressive!
Reasons for reading it: Well, since I'm gradually getting to know modern SF, I obviously had to read Iain M Banks at some point. And the main reason it's taken me so long to get to him is not knowing where to start, so now that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lethargic_man is around to recommend stuff, I'm all set. And wow, how have I lived through all these years without reading it?!
How it came into my hands: A present fromlethargic_man; that has to be one of the best presents ever!
( detailed review )
Anyway, yes, I'm completely hooked. What fun!
