Oh damn, I forgot that part about "Earth being the control". That's hilarious!
My favorite one of them is Excession. I found the relationships / culture between the ship AI's so interesting and frankly, better written than many human relationships in the series overall.
It was a fun book and definitely exposes the lib brained tendencies of the Culture ruling elite (the Minds).
Look to Windward is my favourite. I love its pace. We see more day to day Culture life in that one than any other, and we also get to see the consequences of their meddling when it all goes wrong. Ziller is a great character and he is played so well by Peter Kenny in the audiobook.
