With the assistance of one of its most powerful and arguably deranged warships, Lededje finds herself heading into a combat zone not even sure which side the Culture is really on. A war brutal, farreaching is already raging within the digital realms that store the souls of the dead, and it's about to erupt into reality.It started in the realm of the Real and that is where it will end.

Banks' new Culture novel, a breathtaking achievement from a writer whose body of work is without parallel in the modern history of science fiction.
