London: Macmillan, [1988]. First edition. A fine copy in cloth slipcase without dust jacket as issued. (#168901) (29680). Octavo, cloth. One of 201 numbered copies signed by Banks. Second novel of the Culture sequence. "... though more economically told than CONSIDER PHLEBAS (1987), its bulbous predecessor, less challengingly pits its protagonist against a savage game-based civilization, which he causes to crumble." - John Clute and David Langford, SFE (online). Sargent, British and American Utopian Literature, 1986-2009.
