Look to Windward is a science fiction novel by Scottish writer Iain M. Banks, first published in 2000. It is Banks' sixth published novel to feature the Culture. The book's dedication reads: "For the Gulf War Veterans". The novel takes its title from a line in T. S. Eliot's poem The Waste Land

You read any of his books? I'm not sure this is the gotcha you think it is

Yeah I read Consider Phlebas, Player of Games, Use of Weapons, and Excession. Only really enjoyed Player of Games. They all were generally memorable though.
