Hello all. I have been intrigued by The Culture series for a little while now but have put off really giving it a try until I got some other series off my plate. My TBR is going to open up a bit in the summer and it feels like the right time to give this a try. I read Inversions a couple years ago and liked it enough. The only other books that I’m really interested in are Use of Weapons, Excession, and The Hydrogen Sonata.

Could I get away with reading just those three in that order? Is there any context that I might be missing from other books that would take away some of the impact or weight of these three books? Any info would be much appreciated!
