China Miéville is one of my favorite authors even though I find a lot of his books to be pretty hot and miss, just because he swings for the fences a lot and has a wonderful imagination.
Unfortunately, this one was not a hit. I probably would have stopped reading it had I not been listening to it via audiobook, instead I just listened passively as I did other things. The concept and characters just didn't grab me (though there are some interesting ideas) and I never really ended up paying close attention to the rest of it. I might give it another chance sometime with more focus.
