An unseen, deadly invasion! plus they got it on. alot.

UPDATE: "China Mieville and the Scar... super dork style."

UPDATE: "Shekel also fucked a remade woman with half-track treds where her legs used to be! how the hell does that turn some one on? oh baby oh baby....uuhhgh...move yer tank tracks over...no..yes...oh yeah there it is."

UPDATE: fifty fantasy & science fiction works that socialists should read by china miéville

UPDATE: "Mieville's next novel comes out in paperback tomorrow! 'Iron Council' it's called and I for one can't wait to read it. It has a bisexual protagonist. Downright revolutionary."

UPDATE: "shit. is it set in the wolrd of Bas Lag? Or is it something completely new? whata re details do you know about it?"

UPDATE: "it's in bas lag, set in New Crobuzon (in Bas lag), focusing on a proletariat revolution and a mythic Perpetual Train."

UPDATE: That's enough, John Mayer.
