Joseph Michael Owens is on page 198 of 499 of Use of Weapons (Culture, #3)
I'm really enjoying the 3rd Culture book! So far, each one has been different: book 1, an epic space opera; book 2, a cerebral battle of wits; & book 3 is something else entirely. There's lots of subtext & symbolism at work here, not to mention some flashy chronology tricks, & Banks never loses control of it. I think it's the most complex of the first 3 books, though I'll be more certain once I'm finished!

Onto Book 4 [of book 4], aptly/eponymously called "House of Chains" [very meta of you, Steven Erikson!]!!

Use of Weapons (Culture, #3)

Joseph Michael Owens
Joseph Michael Owens is on page 67 of 499 of Use of Weapons (Culture, #3)
pg.67: "The Minds did not assume such distinctions; to them, there was no cutoff between the two. Tactics cohered into strategy, strategy disintegrated into tactics, in the sliding scale of their dialectical moral algebra. It was all more than they ever expected the mammal brain to cope with."

I noticed something immediately here -- the chapters go: "One", "XIII", Two", "XII", "Three", "XI", . . . There is something nifty afoot, I'm sure of it!
