Review of 'Perdido Street Station' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
When stripped of its many embellishments this novel is essentially about a beast let loose and an unlikely group of characters that help each other conquer the beast and save the day. In terms of genres this is much more a fantasy than science fiction and only barely steam punk, so steampunk/sci-fi fans might be disappointed by the setting.
