What is it you didn't like about Iron Council? Personally I thought it was the weaker of the works and I felt that Mieville's socialist message a bit labourious. I think Mievelle has talent but he needs to refine his work. Too much jibber jabber really.
 
Wow, alot of authors ive never heard of here. Need to get cracking. On the steampunk note I was quite excited to read "the difference engine" but found it flagged seriously at the conclusion. Anyone know of any decent steampunk books.?
 
My top picks of recent novels would be
 
I am Legend - Matheson
Forever War - Haldeman
Starship Troopers - Heinlein
The Wastelands - got a short story by Wolfe in there
