He’s awoken the Kraken and undone London. Now China Mieville welcomes us to Embassytown. His newest novel takes us to the furthest outskirts of the universe, where a tiny cadre of elite human Ambassadors and mysterious aliens is under threat with the appearance of a mysterious new arrival. Join us in welcoming the winner of both the Arthur C. Clarke & British Fantasy awards to the Gallery this evening.

The Plan
The Plan is to meet upstairs at Foyles in Rays Jazz Cafe from 6pm sharp for a coffee and a natter. Then at 6:20 we can head upstairs for the talk. Simple.
Afterwards we might head off for a bite to eat somewhere close by, like Chinatown.
