I haven't read it yet. There was a time when I bought and read all his books on release, but I've fallen a few behind thanks to agency pricing.
I got a used paper copy from Abebooks Ebook prices are ridiculous.

If you haven't read Surface Detail, I recommend it. It's a straight-forward read, as Banks goes

I love the Algebraist so much that I re-read it, but the story doesn't start till about page 200, lol. The gas-giant dwellers are brilliant. They hunt and eat their own children and take drugs in the form of 'party-depositories'.
