	New Crobuzon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		New Crobuzon emerged from the Pirate Wars victorious in 1544, after obliterating the rival city-state of Suroch with "Torque bombs." It was around this time that the Weaver assumed residency beneath the city and the aeromorphic engine ceased working properly.
		New Crobuzon is plagued with troubles throughout the span of those two years: labor strikes, civil unrest, an epidemic of nightmares spawned by exotic moth-creatures, and an abortive war with Armada, to name but a few.
		At the helm of the New Crobuzon's political machine is the mayor, whose office is apparently obtained in a manner akin to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

		His New Crobuzon trilogy refuses to allow us to enter a safe zone of fantasy, instead thrusting us into a world in which the imagination itself can be a potent political instrument and an object of violent political contention.
		Its abuse by the rulers of New Crobuzon suggests a corruption of the imagination, in which the fantasies of the powerful are written out in the flesh of those whom they oppress, while the fantasies of the oppressed themselves lead nowhere.
		It revisits New Crobuzon some decades after the events of Perdido Street Station, reinterpreting and perhaps redeeming the death of the subversive publisher Benjamin Flex and the “obscure crusades and anarchic vengeance” of the Remade renegade, Jack Half-a-Prayer.

	Powell's Books - Iron Council by China Mieville (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		New Crobuzon is being ripped apart from without and within.
		The bold originality that broke Miéville out as a new force of the genre is here once more in Iron Council: the voluminous, lyrical novel that is destined to seal his reputation as perhaps the edgiest mythmaker of the day.
		Miéville represents much of what is new and good in contemporary dark fantasy, and his work is must reading for devotees of that genre.

	Steven Wu's Book Reviews: Perdido Street Station (China Mieville)
		But New Crobuzon is also a dark and dirty place, both physically (its streets are awash with toxic effluvia that generate packs of mutant undead in the city's sewers) and morally.
		Emblematic of New Crobuzon's moral decrepitude is the practice of Remaking, whereby criminals' bodies are twisted into forms appropriate to their crime: a former gangster who refuses to testify against his boss finds his mouth sealed shut, a young mother who murders her children has their arms grafted to her head.
		Among New Crobuzon's human and non-human denizens, a good will is hard to find, and even the best of friends can turn traitor.
