Ian Banks novels now in the US
Today I saw the Ian M Banks novels Consider Phlebas and Player of Games at my local Borders. They're finally back in print in the USA! Just thought I would share this with everyone who might be interested in his work.

"Like...are we canonical?" --Aaron Dembski-Bowden to Dan Abnett

Yay... when Nitram gets out of the hospital he'll be happy.
Nitram, slightly high on cough syrup: Do you know you're beautiful?
Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you'll know...tomorrow."

Hmm, the only two Culture books that I still lack. Which city do you live in? The Borders here in Vegas have been sadly lacking those two titles.Bob the Gunslinger wrote:Today I saw the Ian M Banks novels Consider Phlebas and Player of Games at my local Borders.

I'm in Orange County. You can always try to special order the books. If we have them in California, they can almost certainly be shipped to you in Las Vegas, probably even from the same distributor. It never hurts to ask, anyway.Mlenk wrote:

Plus you might get to use a coupon.
