Picked up this book today and thought it looked interesting. I have read The Wasp Factory, but I have not read any of Iain M Banks's science fiction so I look forward to reading this.

This is a an excellent book, I really enjoyed reading it. I thought the universes of the Culture and Azad were really well realised and the characters were all well developed. I thought the story was exciting. I will definitely read some more of Iain M Banks's work.

I left this book on the OBCZ bookshelf in Trinity Leeds shopping centre this afternoon.

Very excited to pick up this book today - World Book Night! Have finally found an OBCZ outside of my own place and got to chat to a very nice fellow bookcrosser too. Hope to get chance to drop off some of my books next time I visit Leeds.

ETA for shrinking VBB

It took me a while to get into this story. Sci Fi and fantasy are no longer my favourite genre but I do like to try one every so often. I won't be going out of my way to find another of this author but I would definitely give another of his books a read if they turned up on my TBR :)

This book has some water damage due to a loose top and a bottle of water!

Still readable and will release in the wild.

Welcome to Bookcrossing!

You have found a travelling book. Why not join in the fun? Read, release and pass on but don't forget to write a Journal Entry telling us where you found the book, if you read it what you thought about it and where you are going to leave it. If you join bookcrossing before you do the entry you will get an alert when the next person writes up about it and can track its travels. If you prefer to just leave an Anonymous Journal Entry, it will brighten up my day either way. Oh and if you like the book sooooo much you just don't want to let it go that is fine too, maybe one day eh ☺

Enjoy!!

Going bowling with family. Hope to release then.

Fits in with the following release challenges:
