I. M. Banks Libros

Iain M. Banks, quien también escribió como Iain Banks, fue un autor escocés cuyas obras exploraron temas profundos de la sociedad humana y el futuro. Bajo el seudónimo de Iain M. Banks, creó ciencia ficción expansiva y ambiciosa, a menudo ambientada en universos intrincadamente detallados que exploraban complejas bases políticas y filosóficas. Su estilo de escritura se caracterizó por un ingenio agudo, un comentario social incisivo y una fascinación por el avance tecnológico y su impacto en la humanidad. Sus narrativas reflejaron frecuentemente sus puntos de vista políticos de izquierda y una curiosidad intelectual por las estructuras sociales utópicas y anarquistas.

Two and a half millennia ago, the artifact appeared in a remote corner of space, beside a trillion-year-old dying sun from a different universe. It was a perfect black-body sphere, and it did nothing. Then it disappeared. Now it is back. 'Banks is a phenomenon ... wildly successful, fearlessly creative' William Gibson 'Thrilling, affecting and comic ... probably the finest science fiction he has written to date' New Scientist 'Banks has rewritten the libretto for the whole space-opera genre' The Times

It was one of the less glorious incidents of a long-ago war. It led to the destruction of two suns and the billions of lives they supported. Now, eight hundred years later, the light from the first of those ancient mistakes has reached the Culture Orbital, Masaq'. The light from the second may not. 'Confirms Banks as the standard by which the rest of SF is judged' GUARDIAN 'In terms of sheer storytelling prowess and verve, Look to Windward is a work of genius' SFX 'A great book' NEW SCIENTIST
