I read "The Pastel City" and "A Storm of Wings". I won't be continuing the series because, altough it is interesting at times, it doesn't hold my interes.

Both novels are set in phantasmagorical, post-apocalyptical world. The nature is strange and warped, and creatures are not much different. "The Pastel City" concerns a war between 2 queens, and "A Storm of Wings" deals with an alien force intruding on a weakened world after the battle(s). At times it all reminded me of Gormenghast, but one where I didn't care for the characters, which dampened my enjoyment.
