A review by scottish_kat
A Song of Stone by Iain Banks

3.0

This is a very powerful book. It's not an easy or particularly enjoyable book though.

I really like the way the story is told, the first person POV gives the story a vitality that couldn't have been achieved in any other way.

The lack of time and location means that this story can be lifted and shifted to anywhere and any when (at least in the realms of my lifetime)

The casual brutality is unforgiving and relentless.
