There are haunted places. Haunted houses. The metropolis of Punktown, on the planet Oasis, is a haunted city.An unassuming and aimless young man has begun to perceive the city’s dark tentacles in the lay of the streets. Its roots in the labyrinth of the subways. Its polluted taint in the eyes of the people he knows, and even loves. And this evil is stirring, building toward an apocalyptic culmination. The city is not only haunted - it’s perhaps a living thing.MONSTROCITY combines elements of science fiction with horror in the vein of H. P. Lovecraft, taking place in the milieu of Jeffrey Thomas’ acclaimed collection, PUNKTOWN - which China Mieville described as 'searing and alien and anxious and rich.' 3
