I love that poster!
It evokes childhood cartoons AND my love of everything zombie! Thanks!

Also – cannot wait for the review on “The Dead Tossed Waves”! Am so excited for that one!

Thanks!

Congratulations for the makeover ! I like your new navigation bar. Good weekly program and I can’t wait for your review of Ryan’s new book ! I am such a fan of the first one.

OK, first of all – love the new navigation up top! And I think your post space is a little wider, yes? Looks great!

I bought this one so I do hope to read it soon-ish. I’m a little disappointed that the steampunk is only skin-deep. Great way to describe it BTW. Plus I’d read basically the same in other reviews. Still, I do look forward to it. Again, I think yall plus other reviews have maybe helped me actually lower my expectations, so maybe I’ll really enjoy the book more. We shall see.

Four and Twenty Blackbirds stands out quite vividly in my mind…but really the entire Eden Moore trilogy is quite good. Or if your looking for some more apocolyptic goodness, Not Flesh nor Feathers is, like, the epitome of entertainment.

Ooooh, I want a little steampunk spider like that to wear on my lapel to work!

And love that octopus.

Great post Kenda.

KB – the book to us, is not Steampunk not because of the Zombies. The Zombies are cool addition. You can have paranormal elements as long as the technological and social elements are essential aspects of the world and not just skin deep. A good example of Steampunk novel with a supernatural element seems to The Anubis Gates by Tim Powers.

Aoife – I agree with you – I read Leviathan and Thea read Clockwork heart and those two are two of our favorite Steampunk books too!

Dannie – I really enjoyed her writing and I would love to read more of her work – what do you recommend?

The one thing that confuses me with steampunk is that the majority of authors feel they have to put in a supernatural or paranormal element. Boneshaker has this with people turning into zombies, so this is not truly a steampunk book. Right? Wouldn’t it be one with steampunk elements?
