Jon Nixon reviewed The Player of Games by Iain M. Banks
Review of 'The Player of Games' on 'Storygraph'
5 stars
This is the first Iain M Banks novel I've read and I really enjoyed it. It's big far future space opera, but the focus is on the characters (some of them AI drones). The pacing is great with peaceful sections interspersed with violence and threat building to a satisfying conclusion.
