The stories interconnect more on the meta level than as a serialized tale. Events echo. History resonates.</p><p>Anyway, a couple faves:</p><p>Excession is one not to miss. (It was available only in mm paper a few years ago.)</p><p>My absolute favorite is The Hydrogen Sonata, the last one Banks wrote. Hauntingly beautiful. The pinnacle of the series imho. Sublime.</p>
