Inhibitor Phase by Alastair Reynolds

5.0

This might just be my favorite book in the Revelation Space universe. It's still got the gritty noir feeling of the other books, but Reynolds manages to make the character interactions on par with the Kirk-Spock-McCoy ribbing in Star Trek. Also like many other books he's written, he proves himself a master of revealing just what the reader needs to know but nothing more, letting the plot unfold just slowly enough to be mysterious, but not so slowly as to be excruciating.

The end of Inhibitor Phase wraps up the story nicely but teases the possibility of a follow-on book - I'm hoping that becomes a reality soon!
