Why Steampunk?
Steampunk is an extraordinary genre of literature that celebrates the fusion of Victorian elegance, industrial ingenuity, and boundless imagination. At its heart, steampunk reimagines history, weaving fantastical tales filled with clockwork contraptions, airships, and steam-powered marvels while exploring themes of rebellion, innovation, and humanity’s resilience. For example, S.M. Peters’ Whitechapel Gods immerses readers in a dark, mechanical dystopia where steam-fueled deities rule over a reimagined Victorian London, capturing the genre’s penchant for blending myth and machinery. Similarly, Cherie Priest’s Clockwork Century series, beginning with Boneshaker, epitomizes steampunk’s adventurous spirit, transporting readers to an alternate Civil War-era America where zeppelins soar over zombie-infested cities. These works exemplify the genre’s unique ability to combine intricate world-building with compelling characters, offering an escapist yet thought-provoking journey into the fantastical “what could have been.” Steampunk literature invites us to celebrate creativity, individuality, and the endless possibilities of human innovation.
