A superb standalone novel from the awesome imagination of Iain M. Banks, a master of modern science fiction. Count Sessine is about to die for the very last time... Chief Scientist Gadfium is about to receive the mysterious message she has been waiting for from the Plain of Sliding Stones... And Bascule the Teller, in search of an ant, is about to enter the chaos of the crypt... And everything is about to change... For this is the time of the encroachment and, although the dimming sun still shines on the vast, towering walls of Serehfa Fastness, the end is close at hand. The King knows it, his closest advisers know it, yet sill they prosecute the war against the clan Engineers with increasing savagery. The crypt knows it too; so an emissary has been sent, an emissary who holds the key to all their futures. Praise for Iain M. Banks: 'Epic in scope, ambitious in its ideas and absorbing in its execution' Independent on Sunday 'Banks has created one of the most enduring and endearing visions of the future' Guardian 'Jam-packed with extraordinary invention' Scotsman 'Compulsive reading' Sunday Telegraph The Culture series: Consider Phlebas The Player of Games Use of Weapons The State of the Art Excession Inversions Look to Windward Matter Surface Detail The Hydrogen Sonata Other books by Iain M. Banks: Against a Dark Background Feersum Endjinn The Algebraist

    Niels Jamber (Danderyd), 9 augusti 2016

    Lite som Clockwork Orange körd genom köttkvarn. Det egenskapade språket, eller framtidsslangen, är hart när obegriplig, intrigen abstrakt intill vansinne, man vet inte vad som finns "på riktigt" eller är inbillning, allt skevar och knasar. Jag vågar mig inte på resumé av handlingen, utöver att den leskiga masjinen är en del av den. Längre ut mot den rena experimentlitteraturen har SF aldrig tagit sig, det är ett landmärke. Fast jo, man begriper ungefär vad det handlat om när man når slutet, ... Läs hela recensionen

Another truly impressive piece of work from the pen of a master storyteller. * STARBURST * Dazzlingly original. * DAILY MAIL * Banks is a phenomenon: the widly successful, fearlessly creative author of brilliant and disturbing non-genre novels, he's equally at home writing pure science fiction of a peculiarly gnarly energy and elegance. * WILLIAM GIBSON * Sharp, witty, comprehensively terrifying. * OBSERVER *
