This is a slightly gentler read than some of Iain Banks's books. His hero is a really original character, and there is more affection here and even a happy ending. I really loved this book, especially the description of the amazing vast disused church where the main character lives. For anyone who might have found Banks's books a bit too strong meat, try this one. And if you love his books anyway, try it too!
