Finished China Miéville's "Embassytown" today. No the best book I ever read, but still very good sci-fi. Language as a drug is not a concept I've ever seen before, but China Miéville is an interesting author and he portrayed it well. I think this one will be better on a re-read though. So many details and concepts being thrown out that you can get a bit lost along the way.
