The last book in the Culture series came in the mail today. I love other individual science fiction books more, but I've read the first 5 of these and I feel comfortable saying this is the second best science fiction series I've ever read.
By the way, a pox on whatever publishing shenanigans lead to the 4 middle books being a different size than the rest. Not cool Orbit!

In the novels of the Culture, gigantic #artificialintelligence called Minds run massive ships and sometimes entire worlds so the near-Utopian near-immortal Culture can party it up across the stars. I own all but book 10 (because then it's finally over) and I've read the first 5.
The Minds name themselves, often to humorous result: Prosthetic Conscience, The Attitude Adjuster, Of Course I Still Love You, Zero Gravitas, Yawning Angel.
