This collection of stories covers a wide range of fantasy; there's one set in Bas-Lag (home of
Perdido Street Station, Iron Council, and
The Scar), there are a number set in various post-apocalyptic Londons (including
The Tain, a novella about vampires and people captured in mirrors), and even an illustrated story. I really enjoyed "'Tis the Season" about a world in which Christmas is so trademarked that you have to buy permission to celebrate. The stories were all good. Once again Miéville shows off his endlessly inventive and entertaining imagination.
