Yeah, Banks always has layers upon layers to his stories. Use of Weapons is no exception. He's writing about the trauma of war, sure, but also about personal identity and memory, about the futility of revenge and the price of heroism. But don't expect a happy ending. This is Banks after all.

I remember reading it a while back…

I am going to read it but yeah, one of the great masters. It's one of those kinds of books that seems to be about a lot of things. I'm expecting it to be about the trauma of total war so that sounds like it's what I'm looking for

I remember reading it a while back. That man writes like no one else. It's about the morally conflicted character of Special Circumstances agent Zakalwe, right?
