Yes, great books! I recommend starting with 'The Player of Games', not the first book in the series but the best. They are only loosely connected, you won't miss anything.



I started on 'Consider Phlebas', the first book in the series. I recommend starting with that, it's a great book, perhaps not as accessible as 'Player of Games', but more wow-factor.


Agreed on starting with "Player of Games". The culture books are great, but some of them arent exactly what what you'd call accessible.


While 'Excession' being the most complex to me. But gosh, how I enjoyed it.
