Interpretation During Books King Rat

Something is stirring in London's dark, stamping out its territory in brickdust and blood. Something has murdered Saul Garamond's father, and left Saul to pay for the crime.

But a shadow from the urban waste breaks into Saul's prison cell and leads him to freedom. A shadow called King Rat, who reveals Saul's royal heritage, a heritage that opens a new world to Saul, the world below London's streets--a heritage that also drags Saul into King Rat's plan for revenge against his ancient enemy,. With drum 'n' bass pounding the backstreets, Saul must confront the forces that would use him, the forces that would destroy him, and the forces that shape his own bizarre identity.

Judge Of Books King Rat

This was the last novel of China Mieville's that I had left to read, which is ironic as it was his first novel. You can tell it is as well, as the book is rather rougher and less polished than his other works.Yet, for all that, you can get the sense of where the author is heading even at this early point. There is an impression I have that he is searching, almost feeling his way towards his later works here. At each point he almost hesitates, a "how far can I push this" moment, before going

WARNING: If the following image causes you to recoil from your computer in terror, King Rat is decidedly not the book for you: SQUEEEEEEEEK! On the other hand, if you can look these horrors in the face without losing your lunch, then I very much recommend China Miévilles entertaining first book. King Rat tells the story of Saul Garamond, a luckless Londoner who is blamed for his fathers untimely death before you can shake a whisker. Happily for Saul, a mysterious stranger named King Rat breaks

After reading Perdido Street Station, I was expecting King Rat to knock my socks off. It didn't. But, it was a fun horror tale about rodent royalty and the Pied Piper of Hamelin. And, I think it would translate into a really cool graphic novel. The main character's dad dies mysteriously, and he is the only suspect. While he's between interrogations, he's sprung by King Rat. King Rat is the king of the rats. He reveals some secret stuff about Our Hero's past, and informs him that the Pied Piper

Full Review: http://www.tenaciousreader.com/2014/0...King Rat is festering with atmosphere and drowns you in a cacophony of Jungle Bass and Drum. It takes you to Londons underside, its stinking bowels, and gives life to the world below. It does all this in a very good way. I swear. King Rat is my first taste of Mieville and Im still not sure if it was the best place for me to start, but it certainly isnt a bad place to start. This is his debut novel and does not seem to be as widely read or

Like most people, I had read other books by the author before getting to this, his debut novel.While lacking the excellent world building in his later books, this first effort by China Miéville is still way better than most fantasy on the market and a must for his fans.The protagonist here is one Saul Garamond and he isnt quite what he appears to be. And thus begins a most imaginative trip through a world within a world populated with all sorts of interesting characters. A typically dark urban

This was the first book by China Mieville I encountered, back in the late 90s when Barnes & Noble still published weekly/monthly genre-specific magazines filled with reviews of new books. I thought the premise sounded intriguing, but I never got around to reading it and then I wound up in the jungle for a few years -- surprisingly, there are no bookstores in the jungle. When I returned, I discovered that Mieville had been crowned the New Gaiman and I was told that I had to read and revereAfter reading Perdido Street Station I thought for my next Miéville book I would go back to the beginning. Released in 1998 this book is a lot different to the other books of his I've read. You can tell it was his début work as it lacks the refinement of later novels. The most marked difference though is the lack of a certain type of "character". By this I mean the setting. I don't know if all his books are the same but so far in the ones I've read the setting is as much a character as

Ooboy.Well. Before China became His Chinaness, he wrote King Rat. I found this book hard to read. Its just sogrim. And Im not only referring to the gratuitous gross-outs and gore. Its something about the overall feel of the book. The way the characters behave towards each other is just awful.Now dont get me wrong. I think I liked it. The book is an immersive experience. The descriptions make you live the story through all five senses - for better or for worse, considering it looks like dirt,
