Review title: Excellent
Product review: Another culture novel, branching out in another different direction, I liked it, I'll buy the next one that comes along too. The sentient machine battles are especially good in this one. Many reviewers seem to dwell on the point that they couldnt understand the Excession. Is that not the whole poit! We are seeing and being able to judge the actions of the culture when confronted with the the most difficult situation any society could cope with (ie something infinitely powerfull, infinitely unpredictable and infinitely incomprehensible) how would you fare if confronted by the infinitely powerfull unknown, I think the culture did OK. I especially liked Banks reference to the culture getting themselves into an "Out of context situation" well done, I love it.Dave Reid
