Agreed on starting with "Player of Games". The culture books are great, but some of them arent exactly what what you'd call accessible.

I started on 'Consider Phlebas', the first book in the series. I recommend starting with that, it's a great book, perhaps not as accessible as 'Player of Games', but more wow-factor.

While 'Excession' being the most complex to me. But gosh, how I enjoyed it.
