The City & The City por China Mieville

Εξαιρετικο!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Railsea por China Mieville

Mieville does Melville.

OK long story short (too late!) its Moby Dick with trains instead of boats minus the whale hunting tutorials plus the City of Ember for spice.

China Mieville has created an excellent story in a fantastic world. However this imaginative outing is more clichéd than his past novels with a few too many chance happenings bringing the characters together in the end. He combines enough steam punk, diesel punk and cyberpunk to keep you guessing as to the era it supposedly takes place in while providing heavy flavours of Mad Max recklessness.

The big detractor is the marketing. This is not a youth or young adult novel. The complexity of the language and themes China deals with may be beyond the understanding of younger teenagers.

If I tell you what I liked about Railsea I'll spoil the fun for you. The beauty of this book lies in the little details of world building and the cheekiness of the authors fourth wall breaking interludes.

Reminded me of the manga BLAM! in a few places. Also as this is Mieville's second novel involving people living on trains it stands on stronger feet than his somewhat disappointing Iron Council. Certainly his strongest entry in a while.

Watch out for the ampersands Homo narrans. Good reading!… (mais)

Marvelous book, unbelievably rich in language and a very, very good story line (but not recommended for happy-ending lovers!)

Railsea por China Mieville

I loved this book. As usual he plays around with language and style which might make it a more of a challenge for young adults. Hard to describe where this book fits. Part science fiction, fantasy, steampunk. The best Mieville book in years.
