The Back of the Book
They had government permission to hunt down and assassinate her. What the religious Huhsz cult wanted was simple - the most deadly and enigmatic weapon constructed, the Lazy Gun, lost among the plantes of the Thrial star system. Whoever controls the Gun controls all the worlds of humankind. And Lady Sharrow, former antiquities thief and soldier, is the key. On the run, betrayed at every turn, Sharrow sets out to accomplish the impossible and exact revenge - even as she delves into the evil at the very heart of humanity.
Witty, horrific, and ferociously intelligent, Iain M Banks's Against a Dark Background skillfully mixes the imaginative with the disturbingly provocative to deliver space adventure like no one else can write it.

Journal Entry 6 by VauxhallCrosser from Ilford, Greater London United Kingdom on Sunday, July 2, 2006
Received shortly after the last journal, but I'm afraid it fell behind some other books on my shelf and has been missing until now. I have just received another copy in my summer NSS, so this one can now go off to its next destination. I shall contact RuAnderson ASAP. Sorry guys.
