Culture Series Book 09

It begins in the realm of the Real, where matter still matters.
It begins with a murder.
And it will not end until the Culture has gone to war with death itself.
Lededje Y'breq is one of the Intagliated, her marked body bearing witness to a family shame,
her life belonging to a man whose lust for power is without limit. Prepared to risk everything
for her freedom, her release, when it comes, is at a price, and to put things right she will
need the help of the Culture.

Benevolent, enlightened and almost infinitely resourceful though it may be, the Culture can
only do so much for any individual. With the assistance of one of its most powerful - and
arguably deranged - warships, Lededje finds herself heading into a combat zone not even sure
which side the Culture is really on. A war - brutal, far-reaching - is already raging within
the digital realms that store the souls of the dead, and it's about to erupt into reality.

It started in the realm of the Real and that is where it will end. It will touch countless
lives and affect entire civilizations, but at the center of it all is a young woman whose
need for revenge masks another motive altogether.

SURFACE DETAIL is Iain M. Banks' new Culture novel, a breathtaking achievement from a writer
whose body of work is without parallel in the modern history of science fiction.
