A stunning new reissue edition of Inversions - a space opera of
stunning power and awesome imagination from Iain M. Banks, one of
the most important and influential writers in modern science
fiction. In the winter palace, the King's new physician has more
enemies than she at first realises. But then she also has more
remedies to hand than those who wish her ill can know about. In
another palace across the mountains, in the service of the
regicidal Protector General, the chief bodyguard, too, has his
enemies. But his enemies strike more swiftly, and his means of
combating them are more traditional. Spiralling round a central
core of secrecy, deceit, love and betrayal, Inversions is a
spectacular work of science fiction, brilliantly told and wildly
imaginative, from an author who has set science fiction alight.
