China Miéville’s Perdido Street Station is easily one of the most critically acclaimed fantasy novels of the past several decades, as well as a seminal entry in the “weird fiction” subgenre. That makes the book a natural fit for The Folio Society’s ever-growing library of deluxe hardcovers.

Just in time for the book’s 25th anniversary, The Folio Society will publish a massive 707-page hardcover edition of Perdido Street Station. The book includes a new afterword by Miéville and a new series of illustrations by artist Doug Bell. Bell’s artwork includes 8 black and white chapter opening images, 12 full-color illustrations, and a detailed map of the city of New Crobuzon.
