The City & The City

Author: MiÃ©ville, China

A startling premise that was so foreign yet so fascinating. This is a detective novel like you've never read, with such a distinct setting that you'll never forget it. And it's got one of the best endings ever. This is one of the more under stable Mieville novels than some of his more fantastical works. It's also my favorite.
