Re: Looking for Jake (with spoliers)

I got this for christmas and I've been reading each story in between other stuff. This is my first taste of Mieville and I've read up to "Go Between".
Thus far I've been pretty impressed. Some of his writing has massive potential and is thoroughly enjoyable and original, but other bits leave me a little cold.
On the evidence of this collection of stories, I'll certainly be investigating his work further, delving into his novels. I think his style is better suited to a longer tale and "King Rat" sounds ever-so intriguing.
