A review by tasadion
The Business by Iain Banks

4.0

Another reviewer pointed out that this is an airport novel, and I agree. However I do think that it is a particularly fine example of the style. The plot runs on rails, the characters and settings are good fun, and the plot is efficient, nothing is wasted, and the final ending is neat and not over done.

All that said, there are still some excellent conversations (as is so often the case in Banks' novels) that make you think about your relationship with the world and the choices you make.

It's good fun, and while it does not have endless depths, It does cause you to think a little, and that is what makes it such a clever little story.
