Synopsis
In the sprawling fantasy city of New Crobuzon, revolution brews as a renegade train — the Iron Council — roams the wilderness, a mobile commune of workers who seized the rails they were building. As war and rebellion tear the city apart, three storylines converge around the legendary train and what it represents.
