I really didn't like Perdido Street Station. It seemed to me like the author has an obsession with bringing up poop which is ironic because I also felt like he has verbal diarrhea. I thought the world building was great, and it had some fantastic characters and concepts that I wish it explored more, but overall I disliked the writing, and it didn't pull me in. By the halfway point I was just waiting for it to end, in what I expected to be a grim and unsatisfying way.
