It's only one book, but pic related would be perfect for you - loads of spoopy sea creatures, plus an entire floating town made from lashed-together pirate ships

Do you think he legitimately just pulls these obscure words out of his ass, or does he go through his writing with a thesaurus for the lulz? I liked the novel overall but his word choice was fucking unbearable, it was like he was deliberately picking the most archaic and obscure synonym he could possibly find for any and every given adjective. A couple of words I couldn't even find in the OED, god knows if he just invented them or if they're borrowed from Middle English or what. What the fuck was he thinking?

who read this? what did you think?

it wasn't as good as Perdido Street Station, and the ending kinda let me down.
