Having read most of the other Culture novels, I'm actually reading this one at the moment, a fantastic read so far. I love the Culture novels, the universe that comes with it and all the intricate societal considerations. I've been thinking about, hell, craving for a screen adaptation of the Culture novels, though instead of a movie, I think it should probably be a show. It'd have to be really well done, there are a lot of things to take into account and I'm afraid a lot of TV producers/writers might cheapen it. I'm thinking the likes of HBO might be able to pull off something like that. I remember Iain M. Banks saying he was really worried about how TV writers might represent the ships, among other things, and I can totally get that. I can't find the source for this now, sorry, I thought it was in this http://nuwen.net/culture.html http://nuwen.net/culture.html (amazing read by the way), but a quick scan didn't bring it up.
