Amazon to Adapt "Consider Phlebas" Novel for Television

Amazon Studios to Adapt Consider Phlebas, First Novel of the Culture Series, for Television

Dennis Kelly set to write the series, Plan B to produce

The Culture, a fictional interstellar utopian society from author Iain M. Banks is being adapted for television for the first time, to come to life exclusively on Prime Video

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--(NASDAQ: AMZN)—Amazon Studios announced it has acquired the global television rights to the Culture’s first novel Consider Phlebas. The famed space opera by Scottish writer Iain M. Banks features Banks’ fictional interstellar utopian society, the Culture. The series will be adapted by Dennis Kelly (Utopia, Matilda) with Plan B Entertainment (World War Z, 12 Years a Slave, The Big Short, Moonlight, Feud) slated to produce and the Estate of Iain Banks attached as Executive Producer.

    “We revere the work of Iain Banks and continue to be moved by his inimitable spirit and his commitment to imagining a better future even in the darkest of times”

A kinetic, action-packed adventure on a huge canvas, Consider Phlebas draws upon the extraordinary world and mythology Banks created in the Culture, in which a highly advanced and progressive society ends up at war with the Idirans, a deeply religious, warlike race intent on dominating the entire galaxy.

The story centers on Horza, a rogue agent tasked by the Idirans with the impossible mission of recovering a missing Culture ‘Mind,’ an artificial intelligence many thousands of times smarter than any human—something that could hold the key to wiping out the Culture altogether. What unfolds, with Banks’ trademark irreverent humor, ultimately asks the poignant question of how we can use technology to preserve our humanity, not surrender it.

“The story of the Culture is so rich and captivating that for years Hollywood has been trying to bring this utopian society to life on the screen,” said Sharon Tal Yguado, Head of Scripted Series at Amazon Studios. “We are honored that we have been chosen, along with Dennis Kelly and Plan B Entertainment, to make Consider Phlebas into a television series we think will be loved by fans for years to come.”

“Iain Banks has long been a hero of mine, and his innate warmth, humor and humanism shines through these novels,” said Dennis Kelly. “Far from being the dystopian nightmares that we are used to, Banks creates a kind of flawed paradise, a society truly worth fighting for—rather than a warning from the future, his books are a beckoning.”

“We revere the work of Iain Banks and continue to be moved by his inimitable spirit and his commitment to imagining a better future even in the darkest of times,” said Plan B. “Consider Phlebas, simultaneously explores the deepest questions concerning humanity and our future. We are so grateful to the Estate of Iain Banks for the opportunity to bring his work to life, and to Amazon for the scope of their ambition to building Iain’s prescient world.”

VIZ Media to Publish Japanese Sci-Fi Novel, "Sisyphean"

VIZ MEDIA’S HAIKASORU SCIENCE FICTION IMPRINT ANNOUNCES THE AWARD-WINNING NOVEL SISYPHEAN

Famed Author Dempow Torishima Depicts A Stark Future Vision Of Humanity In SISYPHEAN

San Francisco, CA – VIZ Media’s Haikasoru literary science fiction imprint takes readers on a fantastic journey into the surreal with the release of SISYPHEAN on March 20th, 2018.

The novel was written by the award-winning Dempow Torishima, who previously thrilled North American readers with a short story that appeared in the critically acclaimed Haikasoru anthology, PHANTASM JAPAN. SISYPHEAN will be released in print with an MSRP of $16.99 U.S. / $22.99 CAN. An eBook edition will also debut on March 20th on Amazon’s Kindle, Apple’s iBooks Store, Barnes & Noble’s Nook Book Store, the Kobo eBooks Store, and the Google Play Store.

A strange journey into the far future of genetic engineering, and working life. After centuries of tinkering, many human bodies only have a casual similarity to what we now know, but both work and school continue apace. Will the enigmatic sad sack known only as “the worker” survive the day? Will the young student Hanishibe get his questions about the biological future of humanity answered, or will he have to transfer to the department of theology? Will Umari and her master ever comprehend the secrets of nanodust?

“SISYPHEAN delivers a stark vision of bizarre surreality that will enthrall all lovers of science fiction,” says Nick Mamatas, Editor. “Widely renowned in Japanese literary circles, and championed by American writers such as Michael Cisco, Torishima’s English-language book-length debut is sure to increase his notoriety and acclaim amongst SF readers and fans.”

Author Dempow Torishima was born in Osaka and has been a freelance designer and illustrator in addition to his work as an author. He won the Sogen SF Short Story Award with his debut fiction work, “Sisyphean” (Kaikin no to) in 2011. Since then, he has written a series of stories set in the same far-future world of Sisyphean, which was published as Sisyphean and Other Stories in 2013. The book was chosen as the best SF of 2013 in SF Magazine, won the Japan SF Award, and was nominated for the Seiun Award in 2014.
