Articoli correlati a Consider Phlebas: A Culture Novel
**Soon to be adapted as a major TV series**
The war raged across the galaxy. Billions had died, billions more were doomed. Moons, planets, the very stars themselves, faced destruction, cold-blooded, brutal, and worse, random. The Idirans fought for their Faith; the Culture for its moral right to exist. Principles were at stake. There could be no surrender.
Within the cosmic conflict, an individual crusade. Deep within a fabled labyrinth on a barren world, a Planet of the Dead proscribed to mortals, lay a fugitive Mind. Both the Culture and the Idirans sought it. It was the fate of Horza, the Changer, and his motley crew of unpredictable mercenaries, human and machine, to actually find it - and with it their own destruction.
Consider Phlebas is a space opera of stunning power and awesome imagination, from a modern master of science fiction.

Recensione:
Banks is a phenomenon: the wildly successful, fearlessly creative author of brilliant and disturbing non-genre novels, he's equally at home writing pure science fiction of a perculiarly gnarly energy and elegance (William Gibson)
There is now no British SF writer to whose work I look forward with greater keenness (THE TIMES)
Poetic, humourous, baffling, terrifying, sexy - the books of Iain M. Banks are all these things and more (NME)
