A review by tartancrusader
A Song of Stone by Iain Banks

3.0

Very dark, very bleak, very unforgiving. I can see why so many of Banks's fans dislike this. It's a several-orders-of-magnitude departure from his (mostly) otherwise lighter-in-tone works where everything, for the most part, turns out all right in the end. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it; not his best work, by quite some distance, but still worthy of your attention.
