Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction that imagines fantastic machines powered by 19th century technology. Remember that giant spider from that otherwise forgettable Will Smith movie Wild Wild West? That's steampunk. For me the starting point for steampunk is the machines but it delves into other areas as well, such as fashion and attitudes. This kindle book is really a first edition of a little magazine that deals with the world of steampunk. As such it is really an introduction to this world. If you already have an interest in steampunk you'll love it. If you're curious about steampunk you'll probably learn something and will enjoy it. I suspect this book has a smaller potential audience than most books, but for those interested in this genre there is some good stuff here.
