“Somewhere at the intersection of pulp and surrealism, drawing on the very best of both traditions, is Jeff VanderMeer’s Ambergris. Unsettling, erudite, and shot through with unexpected humor…Ambergris is one of my favourite haunts in fiction” —China Mieville on City of Saints and Madmen
“This is fiction to stand alongside that of Calvino and Borges.” —The Guardian on City of Saints and Madmen
“Make the most of the tapestry of tales and visions before you. It is a rare treasure, to be tasted with both relish and respect. It’s what you’ve been looking for.” —Michael Moorcock on City of Saints and Madmen
