I came up with these strictly for a laugh- a series of little vignettes in which representatives of Iain Banks' Culture cross paths with other sci-fi personalities. There MAY be some subtle allusions to British comedy. Needless to say, I don't claim ownership of any of the intellectual properties involved, only my humorous parodies.

This is a mix-and-match in which an emissary from Iain M. Banks' Culture appears on the scene right after the climactic battle in Ender's Game.

After the events of Iain M. Bank's Culture novel 'Matter' a group of humans, drones and Minds discovers the deeper connections between Sursamen and the Culture. Deep inside the shellworld, they discover a dark secret from the Culture's own past that will haunt them across the galaxy.

This is a Culture prequel, set about 8000 years before Consider Phlebas.

After returning from the events of "The Player of Games", Jernau Morat Gurgeh finds himself asked to go on just one more secret mission for Special Circumstances.
