I picked up Player of Games on Kindle a few months ago after seeing all these threads on the Culture series here.
I just couldn’t get into it. I made it through about…a third? into the book.
The whole setting just feels so bizarre and exotic. I couldn’t relate or empathize with any of the characters.
I might get back into it someday but for now it’s languishing.
Should I try Consider Phlebas or Use of Weapons first?
