Transformative in This as Everything Else: Walter Jon Williams’s Metropolitan and City on Fire | Tor.com: "Indeed, one could call them “urban fantasy” if the term didn’t already mean something else, because they’re among the most urban books ever written. It’s the future. There’s an impassable light-giving shield over the sky that was put there when the gods ascended. The sun and moon and day and night are legends. The entire world is covered in city — divided into many polities under a bewildering multitude of governments, but it’s all solidly city, with food growing on the rooftops."
Almost what I would say about these books.
