Iron Council | China Miéville
6 posts | 17 read | 2 reading | 10 to read
It is a time of revolts and revolutions, conflict and intrigue. New Crobuzon is being ripped apart from without and within. War with the shadowy city-state of Tesh and rioting on the streets at home are pushing the teeming metropolis to the brink. In the midst of this turmoil, a mysterious masked figure spurs strange rebellion, while treachery and violence incubate in unexpected places. In desperation, a small group of renegades escapes from the city and crosses strange and alien continents in the search for a lost hope, an undying legend. In the blood and violence of New Crobuzon's most dangerous hour, there are whispers. It is the time of the Iron Council.

I am posting one book per day from my extensive, and ever growing, TBR shelves. Some are old and some are new, some were gifts and some I don't remember why I bought them

Iron Council: A Bas-Lag Novel 3 | China Miéville
Mehso-so

I absolutely loved the first two books in this series. This one was pretty disappointing, and would have been intolerable if I hadn't liked the first two. It took a long time to get going, and could have been a lot shorter. Still, Mieville's world building is astonishingly good.

The third book set in the Bas-Lag fantasy world. It sets the story around the railroads that cross the world and connect the cities. This is the weakest of the Bas-Lag books for me. I don't know why, but it just didn't quite grab me like the others.

GrilledCheeseSamurai I have this but haven't gotten to it yet. I don't even know if I knew it was bas-lag related. 😂 7y

Rushing through this one, almost end of three day weekend. Feeling the need to be woke in the book is exactly the same as the need to be woke in America today. Love China Mieville...

Friends told me to skip this book despite loving others in the series. I avoided this for a long time. I regret that now.
