You could just buy Steampunk and pre-order Steampunk II: Steampunk Reloaded Larry Send a noteboard - 23/10/2010 12:02:55 AM
Gail Carriger's the only Steampunkish stuff I've read. What else should I try?

I do love the look of Steampunk. Victorian clothing with a twist and all the weird & wonderful gadgets. Pretty neat.


Any suggestions?


I'll be reviewing Steampunk Reloaded in a week or two, followed by reviewing an anthology of Brazilian/Portuguese steampunk, Vaporpunk, soon afterward.

It's apparently Steampunk month. Or fortnight, depending on which publisher you look at. Rebekah - 22/10/2010 11:08:05 PM 520 Views
And some enthusiast is apparently trying to build Babbage's original designs for a computer. Legolas - 22/10/2010 11:23:09 PM 496 Views

The Science Museum did one of Babbage's machines, yes, but not the big one. Legolas - 23/10/2010 02:15:13 PM 557 Views

Matt Staggs was sending me something. Which I've not received. Stupid mail system. Rebekah - 23/10/2010 12:07:45 PM 418 Views
Probably that, then Larry - 23/10/2010 02:43:56 PM 462 Views
I wonder if it will actually turn up. Rebekah - 23/10/2010 05:39:33 PM 427 Views
I'm actually in a steampunk trend right now... Missa Sedai - 23/10/2010 12:52:16 AM 502 Views

If you're getting Gibson, make sure you get the Sprawl Trilogy. Joel - 24/10/2010 06:41:26 PM 414 Views
It would seem The Difference Engine is essential Steampunk reading; it largely spawned the genre. Joel - 24/10/2010 06:33:04 PM 384 Views
I will definitely try to hunt The Sprawl down then. *NM* Kallichore - 24/10/2010 09:27:43 PM 220 Views
Not high art, maybe, but well written, well paced and thought provoking. Joel - 24/10/2010 10:48:42 PM 366 Views
