Matter

Matter - Iain M. Banks Well, that ending was abrupt. Why aren't more Banks' books made into movies? They're full of epic visuals and action. Too many epic visuals? Matter is a little bit of the Cthulu mythos, only with nukes, which endears it to me more than I might otherwise have liked it. Just as cracking a read as any other Banks, just as amazing world building, but nothing new for him.
