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, analog
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.
