Donated to bookcrossing by my sister.

If you have found this book, thank you for taking the time to look it up on the internet. Now please tell us what you thought of the book and what your plans for it are.

One of Banks' bankers - mad, marauding and magnificent tale of love, death, life and revenge - pretty much in that order. The reader is thrown from sensual underwater love scenes to wartorn battle scenes in the gut of the ship. What a film this would make!

Posting to safrolistics on Monday as promised (5 months ago!!) when I snatched it in front of her eyes at urban coffee company x-ing meet in Brum. Enjoy, lady!

Cheers Annie, received in the post today. x

Wow, can't believe how long it took me to actually read this book. The first half I just couldn't get into, I don't know if that was just because I wasn't in the right mood to read it, but I'm glad I stuck with it, as once the baddies appeared I was on the edge of my seat and had to read it straight through the night. I sort of liked the non-ending, but I thought she was such a great character, that I wanted to know what else happened to her.
Not sure where the book will go next, I may save it for the Un-Con in Leeds this year.

To be left on the bookshelf in the cafe.
