Feersum Endjinn book cover
On a future earth threatened by the destruction promised by the encroachment. Four seperate characters set out on different paths to try to save themselves and the world. This is one of the least accessible of Banks's novels but one of the most rewarding. He creates his worlds by writing with warmth and affection about the characters at the centre and as he describes the fast edifices at the centre of them, he never allows us to forget the humanity of his central figures. The use of four parallel narratives is a complex structure as is the non standard script deployed by one of his narrators but the use of such techniques makes this novel a rewarding read. read more.
