Rated The Algebraist 10/10

This has been on the shelf for a long time, sitting there looking intimidating and enormous. Quickly realized it was not one of the Culture books, so there was an enormous learning curve. An entirely new Universe with new rules and new occupants, and a swirl of mysteries and questions. And sure enough the answer was in plain sight early on. It just took more than 500 pages for the penny to drop. <br/><br/>Now I have only four Banks sf novels to read for the first time. Just in case I'm running out of time I may need to push on a little more quickly.
