Inversions (Culture #6) by Iain M. Banks

Inversions
Culture #6
Iain M. Banks


Front cover

Date read: 30 July - 8 August 2019
Length: 405 pages
Published: 1998


Doctor Vosill is the physician to the King, and although she has a good reputation, some believe there is more to her treatments. She has more enemies than she realises. Across the mountains, DeWar is the bodyguard of the General, who also has his share of enemies. How are they connected?


Although Inversions didn't really seem like a Culture novel, I really enjoyed it. I like the ones that are more about the people the their relationships with each other.

I liked Vosill, but even though she's one of the main characters, I felt like we didn't really get to know her. I couldn't help but think there was more to her, hiding just beneath the surface.

The relationship that DeWar has with the General's son, Lattens, is very wholesome. I loved reading about their time together and the stories DeWar would tell him.


I am looking forward to more in the series!
