Reading Iain Banks's mind

Iain Banks was on Derren Brown's Trick of the Mind on Friday.

First Derren wrote a word down and showed it to the camera. Then Derren put all of Iain's books before him. Then let him choose contemporary or SF, then choose a book, then a page then a word. The word chosen was of course the one that he had written down beforehand. Amazing stuff. Mr Banks was suitably impressed.

I went to see Derren Brown live last week and he was absoloutely amazing.
