One of Bank's better Culture novels - By: Markus Gossas, 24 Jul 2008
Bank's latest Culture novel, Matter, is one of the strongest in the series, together with Player of Games & Excession. The plot involves several perspectives on the Culture universe as Banks presents a whole hierarchy of civilisations, from a medieval society placed within an artificial world, to the different caretakers of the same world (and their conflicts with one another), to the supremes like Culture & the Morganwelt. We meet a lot of characters: a medieval prince fighting for his right to the throne, a SC agent on her way home, an ancient ship mind, a renegade from the culture & some reallly weird & dangerous aliens, to mention a few. Highly recommended.
