Flotsam of J Swift (Gulliver) Herman Melville (Moby Dick) RL Stevenson (Kidnapped), One Piece, and Mieville's own New Crobazon novels washed up on the shores of a monster-filled metal and soil ocean and salvaged into a fantastical, fast paced and humorous tale of discovery. A satisfying ending also. Mieville back on form after the average City and the dull Kraken.
