Clark's steampunk fantasy Cairo is some of my favorite worldbuilding ever. It's just as delightful here as it was in his novellas--textured and vivid. The rest of the book--plot, characters, emotional arc--is perfectly fine but nothing to write home about. Still, well worth reading and I continue to be happy to follow his career.
