I finished Perdido Street Station before bed last night. I really liked it overall, but am not entirely sure how satisfied I am with the ending. I don't want to give too much away though in case people read this that want to read the book. I'm not necessarily sure how else he could have ended it, but that wasn't what I was expecting. I'm still not entirely sure how to classify the book semi-urban-fantasy, semi-steampunk, but that's ok as long as I'm not trying to recommend it to someone and need to describe it. I'm pretty sure King Rat and The Scar (Mieville's other two books) will get moved nearer the top of the stack now.

I started All the Names since I need to have it read within the next 9 days.
