Steampunk! An Anthology of Fantastically Rich and Strange Stories
by Delia Sherman and Libba Bray and Garth Nix and Holly Black and Dylan Horrocks and M.T. Anderson and Kelly Link and Cory Doctorow and Christopher Rowe and Ysabeau S. Wilce and Cassandra Clare and Elizabeth Knox and Shawn Cheng and Kathleen Jennings
Fourteen masters of speculative fiction, including two graphic storytellers, from Appalachia, ancient Rome, future Australia, and alternate California, create alternate universes where romance and technology reign. Where tinkerers and dreamers craft and re-craft a world of automatons, clockworks, calculating machines, and other marvels that never were. Where scientists and schoolgirls, fair folk and Romans, intergalactic bandits, utopian revolutionaries, and intrepid orphans solve crimes, escape from monstrous predicaments, consult oracles, and hover over volcanoes in steam-powered airships.
