A stunning new reissue edition of Feersum Endjinn - a space opera of stunning power and awesome imagination, from the modern master of science fiction, Iain M. Banks
The novels of Iain M. Banks have forever changed the face of modern science fiction. With breathtaking imagination and extraordinary storytelling, they have secured his reputation as one of the most extraordinary and influential writers in the genre.
'Banks is a phenomenon' William Gibson
Count Sessine is about to die for the very last time . . .
Chief Scientist Gad fium is about to receive the mysterious message she has been awaiting from the Plain of Sliding Stones . . .
Bascule the Teller, in search of an ant, is about to enter the chaos of the crypt . . .
This is the time of the encroachment and everything is about to change. Although the dimming sun still shines on the vast, towering walls of Serehfa Fastness, the end is close at hand. The King knows it, his closest advisers know it, and the crypt knows it too; so an emissary has been sent - an emissary who holds the key to all their futures.
