China Mieville - The City & The City: EXCLUSIVE pre-release event! April 30, 2009

Forbidden Planet is pleased to announce an exclusive pre-release event for China Miéville’s The City & The City. Join China for a signing and reading at the Forbidden Planet Megastore, 179 Shaftesbury Avenue, London, WC2H 8JR, on Thursday 30th April 6 – 7pm.

When the body of a murdered woman is found in the decaying city of Beszel, it looks like a routine case for Inspector Tyador Borlu of the Extreme Crime Squad. But as he probes, he finds conspiracies far stranger, and more deadly, than he could have imagined. Borlu must travel to the only metropolis on Earth as strange as his own, across a border like no other.

The City & The City is a murder mystery taken to dazzling metaphysical and artistic heights.
