Description
In 4034 AD, humanity has reached for the stars, but Fassin Taak's life is far from certain. As a Slow Seer at the Court of the Nasqueron Dwellers, he navigates a complex web of data and intrigue in a gas giant on the outskirts of the galaxy. Fassin's latest mission takes him to the heart of the Dwellers' society, where he must uncover a secret hidden for half a billion years. But with each passing day, war draws closer, threatening to overwhelm everything he holds dear. This gripping tale of politics, power and survival is characteristic of Iain M. Banks' unique vision of the future. With its epic scope and ambitious ideas, The Algebraist is a compelling read that will keep you engaged until the very end.
