"This is a great steam punk environment with juicy characters, lots of drama, and action.
The world of New Crobuzon is like a medieval grunge version of London.
The characters are seedy, they have flaws, and they are vivid in the imagination of the reader.
Not only would this make an outstanding movie ( a la Dark City or Bladerunner) - it would make an outstanding video game as well."
