A mixed bag of a book. First, if fanfic is a turnoff for you, be warned there are two stories in here which are basically fanfic, one with the serial numbers filed off and one which relied on the serial numbers to make its point. Maybe it's weird of me, but if I want fanfic, I'll wander the intern...
Rating: 4/5Summary: Overview of the Steampunk culture with a look at its history and current (pre-2011) state.Review: Grab a cup of tea while enjoying The Steampunk Bible, a beautifully illustrated guide to the Steampunk culture.

VenderMeer covers the history of Steampunk, art, literature, fashion, music, creations, cons, film and TV. The pictures are absolut...
The Book Report: The book description says: Steampunk—a grafting of Victorian aesthetic and punk rock attitude onto various forms of science-fiction culture—is a phenomenon that has come to influence film, literature, art, music, fashion, and more. The Steampunk Bible is the first compendium about ...
