Review
'The very best fantasy writing of today', claim the publishers, and, for once, the hyperbole is justified. This is a celebration of the city in fantasy, including a fresh novella from China Mi ville, the brightest new star in fantasy, whose Perdido Street Station was the novel that introduced his fabled setting, New Crobuzon, and was an international bestseller and multiple award winner. In fact, this collection can boast four of the biggest names in modern fantasy, all celebrating in individual fashion the fantastic potential of the city whether in the terrifying, teeming gothic grandeur of New Crobuzon, or the subtle otherness of Geoff Ryman's London. At times uneven, this is still a dazzling collection. An A to Z to the streets of the imagination.
