Step into Bas-Lag with the New Crobuzon Series 3 Books Collection Set by China Miéville, gathering Perdido Street Station, The Scar and Iron Council in one brand-new paperback bundle. This is dense, imaginative, politically charged fantasy for readers who want more than swords and sorcery — a sprawling, steampunk-inflected world of monstrous invention and moral complexity, ideal for genre fiction fans, gift buyers and collectors.. About the Books. The New Crobuzon Series (also called the Bas-Lag novels) showcases China Miéville at his most inventive. Perdido Street Station introduces the vast, grimy metropolis of New Crobuzon, where humans, mutants and stranger creatures coexist beneath smoke-choked skies — until a scientist's forbidden experiment unleashes a nightmare that threatens the entire city. The Scar pulls readers out to open water, following a reluctant prisoner aboard a floating pirate city built from scavenged ships, where hidden agendas and impossible ambitions collide. Iron Council returns to New Crobuzon at the height of civil unrest, tracing a legendary rebel train and the revolutionaries who rode it into myth, as war and uprising threaten to tear the city apart.. Each novel stands alone, yet together they form a loosely connected trilogy sharing the world of Bas-Lag. Miéville's prose blends gothic horror, science fiction and fantasy into what critics call "New Weird" fiction — body horror, revolutionary politics, and creatures unlike anything in conventional fantasy. First published in the early 2000s, these novels remain acclaimed, influential works of modern speculative fiction, and this set offers an ideal way to enjoy them together in matching brand-new paperbacks..
