A review by sam_vimes_75
Un Lun Dun by China Miéville

3.0

I struggled through about the first 1/3 of the book because it was very conventional: unlikely hero is the chosen one who will save the fantastic kingdom. Fortunately through some twists and turns, the book finally comes into its own perspective. Fun (and sometimes frustratingly obvious and too much) wordplay throughout the novel and interesting characters help carry the reader along to the end.
