Just finished Iain Banks' 'Complicity'. Felt incredibly dated – like a 1990s paint by numbers exercise. Drugs, sex, slacker attitude etc. The more transgressive, the more authentic.

I find Iain Banks to be pretty overrated in general (including most of his sci fi stuff). I enjoyed The Bridge and The Wasp Factory but everything else I've read of his, including Complicity has just been really blokey and dull. Agreed that it feels dated as well.

The Bridge and The Wasp Factory

Yeah, I read those and liked them. I guess I'll stop here then.
