So would you recommend it to someone that wasn't a big fan of his non-Bas Lag novels? A Deathwatch Guard Send a noteboard - 09/05/2012 10:04:15 AM
I read City and the City and it was just kinda disappointing... At least compared to the Bas Lag books. I don't remember what my issues with it were anymore, but I think it was something about it being underwhelming. I just have this memory of the story and premise kinda fizzling out.

But anyway, is this book an improvement on that one? I really liked the Bas Lag books a lot, so I'd love to read some more Mieville.

Sounds like a cross between The Scar and Iron Council. Is that at all accurate? *NM* Tim - 07/05/2012 09:51:17 PM 486 Views
On a fairly simplistic level, yes *NM* Werthead - 08/05/2012 09:43:53 AM 365 Views
