Steampunk! an Anthology of Fantastically Rich and Strange Stories by

3.0

A collection of short stories by talented writers, Steampunk! really shows the depth and breadth of the genre. The settings are not limited to the sooty streets of Victorian London, which allows readers familiar with that setting to get a fresh perspective on what constitutes a steampunk story. From rough-riding women of the futuristic West to a modern day duo of teens, looking for an escape from bullies, each story takes on a different aspect of steampunk culture and weaves it in to a science-fiction tale worthy of a mini-series. Luckily, the authors are gifted enough that readers don't have to see the tales on screen in order to get an idea of the fantastical worlds created within a few pages.

Check it out if you're ready to venture beyond the standard setting and aren't one of those people who has a narrow definition of steampunk.
