China Mieville writes science fiction! This book was really, really good, possibly my favorite thing of his I've read. If you're not already sold, it reminded me very much of Octavia Butler, specifically (highlight to read, is spoilery) Octavia Butler's Amnesty crossed with Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash, but with Mieville's own obsessions (the city, of course).
