Espedair Street - Slightly bias as the character Danny is loosely based on Fish - 6ft5 Scotsman started out his carreer wearing make-up to disguise his insecurities, played in a big prog rock band etc - I asked Iain about this at a signing years ago and he commented that him and Fish were friends and Fish would play Danny if the film was made - i'd guess he's too old now.

The Crow Road - a brilliant book, good tv series too

The Business

I never understood the fascination with the Wasp Factory except its shock tactics tbh, easily the weakest Banks book imo.

Banks is a great author though, never liked the M stuff though.

Cheers
