The first book in Iain M. Banks's seminal science fiction series, The Culture. Consider Phlebas introduces readers to the utopian conglomeration of human and alien races that explores the nature of war, morality, and the limitless bounds of mankind's imagination.

The war raged across the galaxy. Billions had died, billions more were doomed. Moons, planets, the very stars themselves, faced destruction, cold-blooded, brutal, and worse, random. The Idirans fought for their Faith; the Culture for its moral right to exist. Principles were at stake. There could be no surrender.

Within the cosmic conflict, an individual crusade. Deep within a fabled labyrinth on a barren world, a Planet of the Dead proscribed to mortals, lay a fugitive Mind. Both the Culture and the Idirans sought it. It was the fate of Horza, the Changer, and his motley crew of unpredictable mercenaries, human and machine, actually to find it, and with it their own destruction.

Welcome to The Culture

Granskad i Storbritannien den 27 juli 2013

Verifierat köp

The great and sadly departed SciFi writer Iain M. Banks introduces his creation The Culture in Consider Phlebas; and all the thematic building blocks of this iconic Banks Universe are neatly fitted into place. However having read most of the other Culture novels before getting to this one I was a little disappointed with Consider Phlebas. To be sure Banks seems to be having tremendous fun: there are some intricately described set-pieces: most notably the train collision deep within the Command Centre on Scahr's World which builds like a black-mirror outtake of an Indiana Jones movie; and credit to Banks in creating fantastically imagined scenes that are massively filmic in their precision and imaginative detail. The problem for me was the weaker linking sections: for example the section where the central character Horza escapes to the island with the Eaters seemed to belong to a quite different Universe from the soon-to-be-obliterated Culture Orbital. This section was simply not credible and didn't do anything to drive the plot. Also corny was the fact that characters were continually being held captive and tied up in some way - I can't remember reading a book with so many long descriptions of characters straining to break free of their bonds. If this is Banks being humorous about human bondage in some way than his intent was very obscure. One such escape event would have been more than sufficient. Also the ending is wrapped up in a perfunctory way - almost as though Banks had suddenly lost interest in his leading character Horza. Nevertheless the book powers along at a cracking pace and held this readers attention most of the time - for this is hugely entertaining SciFi; and it is interesting to see many of Banks' set-pieces emerge that are refined in later Culture novels.

Brilliant book ,not being a sci-fi fan I was cautious. It was recommended by a friend
I thoroughly enjoyed it. Am now a fan of Ian M Banks as sci fi author and Ian Banks in general fiction. Such a pity this wonderful story teller died.

Don't buy a book from a review . . . !

Disappointed.
Not sure why. Maybe because the 'hero' was able to 'morph' into other people. I felt that it was cheating somehow. Didn't finish it. Charity shop.

This was a real page turner. He writes proper science fiction, none of this fantasy rubbish. Tries to explain the physics behind the prose, top read.

Great imagination on the author. There's so much I want to know more about, that I've bought the next 2 books before even getting halfway through this one.
