China Mieville doesn.t follow trends, he sets them. Relentlessly pushing his
own boundaries as a writer.and in the process expanding the boundaries of the
entire field.with Embassytown, Mieville has crafted an extraordinary novel
that is not only a moving personal drama but a gripping adventure of alien
contact and war.

In the far future, humans have colonized a distant planet, home to the
enigmatic Ariekei, sentient beings famed for a language unique in the universe,
one that only a few altered human ambassadors can speak.

Avice Benner Cho, a human colonist, has returned to Embassytown after years
of deep-space adventure. She cannot speak the Ariekei tongue, but she is an
indelible part of it, having long ago been made a figure of speech, a living
simile in their language.

When distant political machinations deliver a new ambassador to Arieka,
the fragile equilibrium between humans and aliens is violently upset.
Catastrophe looms, and Avice is torn between competing loyalties.to a husband
she no longer loves, to a system she no longer trusts, and to her place in
a language she cannot speak yet speaks through her.
