Perdido Street Station [Secure Mobipocket/Microsoft Reader/eReader (recommended)/Adobe]
by China Mieville
|
|
Beneath the towering bleached ribs of a dead, ancient beast lies New Crobuzon, a squalid city where humans, Re-mades, and arcane races live in perpetual fear of Parliament and its brutal militia. The air and rivers are thick with factory pollutants and the strange effluents of alchemy, and the ghettos contain a vast mix of workers, artists, spies, junkies, and whores. In New Crobuzon, the unsavory deal is stranger to none--not even to Isaac, a brilliant scientist with a penchant for Crisis Theor... more info>> (Published: 2003)

Un Lun Dun [Secure Mobipocket/Microsoft Reader/eReader (recommended)]
by China Mieville

|
It is London through the looking glass, an urban Wonderland of strange delights where all the lost and broken things of London end up ... and some of its lost and broken people, too--including Brokkenbroll, boss of the broken umbrellas; Obaday Fing, a tailor whose head is an enormous pin-cushion, and an empty milk carton called Curdle. Un Lun Dun is a place where words are alive, a jungle lurks behind the door of an ordinary house, carnivorous giraffes stalk the streets, and a dark cloud dreams ... more info>>
