Write a review
An anthology that presents fantastical stories. It covers the romantic elegance of the Victorian era and blends in modern scientific advances - synthesizing imaginative technologies such as steam-driven robots, analogue supercomputers, and ultramodern dirigibles.
Replete with whimsical mechanical wonders and charmingly anachronistic settings, this pioneering anthology gathers a brilliant blend of fantastical stories. "Steampunk" originates in the romantic elegance of the Victorian era and blends in modern scientific advances - synthesizing imaginative technologies such as steam-driven robots, analogue supercomputers, and ultramodern dirigibles. The elegant allure of this popular new genre is represented in this rich collection by distinctively talented authors, including Neal Stephenson, Michael Chabon, James Blaylock, Michael Moorcock, and Joe R. Lansdale.
