    Casting the Scar

    Inspired by the GRR Martin one, because I can actually remember this book and it seems as though, properly-approached, the only hurdle to accurately realising it would be money and three hours of screen time. Namely, who would you cast for a film of The Scar. I reckon on Kate Ashfield from...

    Perdido Street Station

    I've just finished this book and in shell shock :eek: I'm ever so pleased I didnt read this book of China Mieville's first, I think the cramming of information he's put into it would have put me off his work. The story around Issac and Lin and the closest associates Yag and Derkhan is...

    The End Of Mieville: HERE BE SPOILERS!!!

    On another thread here, Caladan Brood mentioned that China Mieville seems to have a bit of a problem with ending his stories. I though it might be worth discussing this aspect of Mieville's books in a little more detail. Purely from memory, here are the endings of his four novels thus far and...

    The Scar

    I thought it would be nice to start a thread on this book in the New Crobuzon series :) I personally dont think you have to read the books for this series in order. I read this book first before going onto PSS which is the first one in the series. But anyhow, I'm rambling :D What did...

    The China Mieville Interview!

    Here it is! I finally spoke to Mieville for an hour on Tuesday night. I've tried to ask as many of the questions you contributed as I could, but tried avoiding questions that you can find the answers to in recent interviews, I forgot a few and a couple I just made up on the fly. Without...

    Iron Council by China Mieville

    NOTE: Mild spoiler potential. If you're really picky about such things, come back after you've read the book. Cheers. The revolution is dead. Long live the revolution. Upon finishing China Mieville's 4th novel, Iron Council, I found myself reminded of Geroge Orwell's chronicle of his...

    Perdido Street Station by China Mieville

    Perdido Street Station by China Mieville Publisher: Del Rey; (February 27, 2001) I enjoyed China Mieville's Perdido Street Station a lot, so perhaps I had better begin with its weak points. First off, it is an extremely dark, grim book. There are scenes here of terrible violence, gruesome...
