Re: Iron Council by China Mieville

The nature of these three books is very very adult, its a very shocking and brutal world that these folk live in. It is vary sad lith that you didnt enjoy these books. I have read all three and yes the sexual scenes can make one's eyes smart but once you get through the dense and often violent content at the start, about a third of the way in the books start to make sense.

That said these are not for everyone but I would urge you to give em another go. Yes they are brutal nasty but quite fascinating. China handles very volatile subjects in a head on kind of fashon.
