Boneshaker, one of the top Steampunk Novels
If you want to know what Steampunk is, don’t look for a description here. Other people have done it better than I could and here is one such place: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SteamPunk
If you are interested in Novels, here’s some: Cherie Priests ‘Clockwork Century’: Set in America, mostly during the civil war: Boneshaker is a good place to start. Dreadnought is my favorite, has a steampunk-western feel. Ganymede, which I haven’t read, but am looking forward to.
Another good series is the Steamwork Consortium novel: Arcadia Snips and the Steamwork Consortium, all humor and cleverly written.
Movie wise there are the new Sherlock Holmes movies (surprisingly so!) and, of all things, Wild Wild West (terrible, but funny)
There’s a very short and lacklustre post about steampunk. Tomorrow, I shall write something worthwhile.
Thanks for the info. I’m writing a series right now and will follow your links to see if I can gather some more info:)
I’m not a professional, but I do edit non-professional writings. Eventually, you’ll see a blog post on an urban fantasy I’m editing now. (I’ll only post with author’s permission, otherwise it will be a general post ON urban fantasy)
