''A book that makes you look at the world around you in a different light... properly thrilling'' Independent on Sunday



Imagine a world that is one of infinite parallel worlds, between the dismantling of the Wall and the fall of the Twin Towers, in the shadow of suicide terrorism and financial collapse. Presiding over this world is the Concern, an all-powerful organisation whose operatives possess extraordinary powers. There is Temudjin Oh, an unkillable assassin who journeys from the high passes of Nepal to a version of Victorian London or a wintry Venice; Adrian Cubbish, restlessly greedy City trader; and the Philosopher, a state-sponsored torturer who moves between the time zones with sinister ease. Transition is a high-definition, hyper-real apocalyptic fable for terrible times.


Praise for Iain Banks:

''The most imaginative novelist of his generation'' The Times

''His verve and talent will always be recognised, and his work will always find and enthral new readers'' Ken MacLeod, Guardian

''His work was mordant, surreal, and fiercely intelligent'' Neil Gaiman

''An exceptional wordsmith'' Scotsman
