It is 4034 AD. Humanity has made it to the stars. Fassin Taak, a Slow Seer at the Court of the Nasqueron
Dwellers, will be fortunate if he makes it to the end of the year. The Nasqueron Dwellers inhabit a gas
giant on the outskirts of the galaxy, in a system awaiting its wormhole connection to the rest of
civilisation. In the meantime, they are dismissed as decadents living in a state of highly developed
barbarism, hoarding data without order, hunting their own young and fighting pointless formal wars.
Seconded to a military-religious order he s barely heard of part of the baroque hierarchy of the Mercatoria,
the latest galactic hegemony Fassin Taak has to travel again amongst the Dwellers. He is in search of a secret
hidden for half a billion years. But with each day that passes a war draws closer a war that threatens to
overwhelm everything and everyone he s ever known. As complex, turbulent, flamboyant and spectacular as the
gas giant on which it is set, the new science fiction novel from Iain M. Banks is space opera on a truly epic
scale.
