Krátky popis
The novels of Iain M. Banks have forever changed the face of modern
science fiction. His Culture books combine breathtaking imagination
with exceptional storytelling, and have secured his reputation as
one of the most extraordinary and influential writers in the
genre.'Banks is a phenomenon' William Gibson The Scavenger species
are circling. It is, truly, the End Days for the Gzilt
civilisation. An ancient people, organised on military principles
and yet almost perversely peaceful, the Gzilt helped set up the
Culture ten thousand years earlier.Now they've made the collective
decision to follow the well-trodden path of millions of other
civilisations: they are going to Sublime, elevating themselves to a
new and almost in finitely more rich and complex existence. But,
amid preparations, the Regimental High Command is destroyed. Vyr
Cossont, a former soldier for the Gzilt, appears to have been
involved, and she is now wanted - dead, not alive.Aided only by an
ancient, reconditioned android and a suspicious Culture avatar,
Cossont must complete a final mission, she must find the oldest
person in the Culture, a man over nine thousand years old, who
might just hold the key to understanding what happened . . .The
final days of the Gzilt civilisation may prove its most perilous.
