Iain M. Banks
The novels of Iain M. Banks have forever changed the face of modern science fiction. His Culture books combine breathtaking imagination with exceptional storytelling, and have secured his reputation as one of the most extraordinary and influential writers in the genre.
'Banks is a phenomenon' William Gibson
War rages across the galaxy. Billions have died, billions more are doomed. Moons, planets, the very stars themselves, face cold-blooded, brutal destruction. The Idirans fight for their Faith; the Culture for its moral right to exist. Principles are at stake. There can be no surrender.
Within this cosmic conflict, a crucial battle of wits is waged. Deep within a fabled labyrinth, on a Planet of the Dead forbidden to mortals, lies a fugitive Mind. Both the Culture and the Idirans desperately seek it. It is the fate of Horza, the Changer, and his motley crew of unpredictable mercenaries, human and machine, to actually find it - and with it their own destruction.

'Banks is a phenomenon' William Gibson
Some ... people one-star-ed this book because they didn't realise they can turn down the listening speed in the app.
My own reading pace is also frantic so I appreciate the fast tempo.
Fun if a bit gruesome at times

It almost feels like the fact that the protagonist does some truly awful things (murder) for a cause that seems objectively bad (fighting for a racist and religiously radical alien race) all while being a manipulative awful person to everyone around him is the main concept behind this book.
Apart from that, the story is very sequential, with most of the book feeling a bit like filler except for the last 90 minutes or so.
Not great
