Re: Iain M Banks: The Algebraist

Hmm, I must admit that I found The Algebraist a bit confusing and complex. One of the "mental" exercises I needed to do was getting overall picture. So I could relate to the story and the characters. So I read the first chapters twice . (could be that I am really slooowwww )

And the second issue was when I at last finished it , I wanted to read more which is a good thing or is it just because Iain did not supply me with enough substance that could give me end i felt comfortable with.

But I a, going to read it again, just because Banks is and excellent writer that usually has good grasp on highly complex stories.
