Excession: Culture
Autor Iain M. Banksen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 noi 2023
A stunning new reissue edition of Excession - a space opera of stunning power and awesome imagination from Iain M. Banks, one of the most important and influential writers in modern science fiction.
Two and a half millennia ago, the artifact appeared in a remote corner of space, beside a trillion-year-old dying sun from a different universe. It was a perfect black-body sphere, and it did nothing. Then it disappeared.
Now it is back.

Descriere
'Banks is a phenomenon' William Gibson
Two and a half millennia ago in a remote corner of space, beside a trillion-year-old dying sun from a different universe, the artifact appeared.
It was a perfect black-body sphere, and it did nothing. Then it disappeared.
Now it is back.
Diplomat Genar-Hofoen of Special Circumstances is sent to investigate but, sidetracked by an old flame and the spoiled-brat operative Ulver Seich, and faced with the systematic depravities of a race who call themselves the Affront, it's anyone's guess whether he'll succeed . . .

Recenzii
There is now no British SF writer to whose work I look forward with greater keenness
Poetic, humourous, baffling, terrifying, sexy - the books of Iain M. Banks are all these things and more
