reflections in the rain about a dream
This is the 8th science-fiction novel from Scottish writer Iain M. Banks. It is also the seventh novel I have read from him in a few short days, including Feersum Endjinn, The Algebraist, Consider Phlebas, The Player of Games, Against A Dark Background and Excession.
I have enjoyed reading most of them, though I regard Excession and The Algebraist as his best. Inversions was published in 1998.
This is a spoiler free review of the science-fiction novel Inversions by Iain M. Banks.
Today, I met up with Daniel for a spot of dinner and a walk.

This is the TV movie that led to the new series Painkiller Jane on Scifi with Kristanna Loken.
Personally, I thought that the movie was good.
I just hope that the series will get better in a few episodes.
Please read this post if you want to know more about Painkiller Jane.
Warning: Spoilers ahead.
As I mentioned earlier today, the show Drive was canceled on Fox.
It will be pulled immediately and the last few episodes will be shown during the summer.
It’s too bad, but what can you expect after The Black Donnellys was canceled?

This is the 6th science-fiction novel from Scottish writer Iain M. Banks. It is also the sixth novel I have read from him in a few short days, including The Algebraist, Consider Phlebas, The Player of Games, Against A Dark Background and Excession.
I have enjoyed reading most of them, though I regard Excession and The Algebraist as his best. Feersum Endjinn was published in 1994.
This is a spoiler free review of the science-fiction novel Feersum Endjinn by Iain M. Banks.
I took the time yesterday to catch up on some sleep.
I had some time to kill in between tutoring and teaching, so I went by PageOne.
Luckily, I had just finished all of Iain M. Banks‘ books that I could find. There are still 3 books that I need to order: Use of Weapons, State of Art and Look to Windward.
The reviews for Feersum Endjinn and Inversions are upcoming. I find it strange that Inversions would be classified as a science-fiction book, since there is nothing to indicate sci-fi in this book. I’ll research it a bit tonight before posting my review.
