The third title in this amazing imaginative sequence focused on the fabulous city of New Crobuzon and its very special world. Rebellion and war race to take control of New Crobuzon in the award-winning Iron Council by China Miéville.
It is a time of revolts and revolutions, conflict and intrigue. New Crobuzon is being ripped apart from without and within. War with the shadowy city-state of Tesh and rioting on the streets at home are pushing the teeming metropolis to the brink.
In the midst of this turmoil, a mysterious masked figure spurs strange rebellion, while treachery and violence incubate in unexpected places. In desperation, a small group of renegades escapes from the city and crosses strange and alien continents in the search for a lost hope, an undying legend.
In the blood and violence of New Crobuzon's most dangerous hour, there are whispers. It is the time of the Iron Council.
'A work of exhaustive inventiveness ... superlative fantasy.'
Time Out
'A well-written, authentically engrossing adventure story, exuberantly full of hocus-pocus ... Miéville does not disappoint.'
Daily Telegraph
'Mieville's creatures end up none the wiser, but there is nothing uncertain about his confidence in his own inventions. And it is wonderfully infectious; Armada, like New Crobuzon, has the feel and complexity of a living place – it's just that you wouldn't want to live there.'
Sunday Telegraph
