An excellent place. His new book, long delayed (and last I heard to be
titled ROBOT, BEING), should be out soon from Oxford UP. Good stuff.

Hi, pal. That's me. JJJ had one of the more intelligent and whimsical
interviewers, as I recall - a sprightly exchange. If you enjoy THE SPIKE,
try my current somewhat posthuman sf novel THE WHITE ABACUS, and if you can
find a 2nd hand copy (easier to do in Oz than in the States) my 1982 novel
THE JUDAS MANDALA.

character in an Iain M. Banks posthuman novel...)
