Another beautifully written, highly inventive novel in Miéville's extraordinary Bas-Lag world. A story of revolution, told over years, with strong plot and character development suddenly paying off in the last third of the book. This is the third of Miéville's Bas-Lag novels; although each has different characters and a different plot, the world-building and events, especially from Perdido Street Station (the first book), echo here.
Classified as fantasy, but contains weird, steampunk, or Lovecraftian elements.
