The Scar

Stunning not only in its complex & imaginative world making (which we already know from Perdido Street Station) but also gripping for its risking-the-world events of insane scale, its moments of shuddering (gotta say it, Lovecraftian) horror, and characters of such depth and emotion and their constantly shifting relationships, I plowed through The Scar, almost incapable of putting it down til I'd finished it. I can't imagine it's possible that you wouldn't enjoy it.
