Besides The City & The City I really enjoyed Kraken and Un Lun Dun by China Miéville.

Kraken is the hunt for a giant squid after it vanished from a London museum.

Un Lun Dun is a young adult story of two friends who end up in a whimsical version of London.

IIRC Kraken was described as 'an explosion in an ideas factory'. I liked the ideas but about half way through began to wish that Miéville would calm down and explore in more detail some of the characters / concepts he'd introduced earlier in the novel.

I'll have to check them out!

I was first drawn to TC&TC because I was told Disco Elysium draws from it, and boy howdy was that right. Something is so wonderful about a crime procedural in an entirely fantastic universe.

That's funny, I just added Disco Elysium to my Steam wish list yesterday.

You will not be disappointed! Possibly my favourite game of all time.
