The Strange Affair of Spring Heeled Jackrobinb I'm wanting to try this genre as well! I've read one that was billed as an urban fantasy, steampunk mystery, but I'm not sure that it's strictly steampunkish. I'm actually still trying to figure out just what "steampunk" is. ?The Hanged Man 7y

Cinfhen I JUST read my first #steampunk check out the discussion... @LibrarianRyan gave the best description @robinbLady of Devices: A Steampunk Adventure Novel 7y
Lady of Devices: A Steampunk Adventure NovelLibrarianRyan @robinb Steampunk imagines a world run on steam engines not electricity. Science and math are very important. Steam ships and zeppelins still exist and are/can be used in every day life. The world clock has been stoped around the turn of the century and still has a very Victorian feel. Alchemy is still a legitimate science and then air is filled with aether. Everything even animals are mechanical The world is still exploring, building, dreaming.Ink and Bone: The Great Library (edited) 7y
