Note that the first book probably isn't the best place to start, since it's an outside looking in to the Culture. It's still a good book, but Player of Games (imo) is a better starting point since it gives more background on the Culture and the main character is somebody raised in the Culture.
Thanks for the rec, will give the Culture series a try!
