Re: Suggest Steampunk EBooks?

The Leviathan series (Scott Westerfield) are available on Nook Book. $9.99

 

There are two Steampunk story anthologies that are good (the first one is, haven't read the second, to be truthful) called Steampunk and Steampunk II (though only II sems available for Nook)

 

The Difference Engine is an old standby.

As is Morlock Nights (the origin of the genre, really)

 

The Affinity Bridge - http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/affinity-bridge-george-mann/1100260062?ean=9780765323224

 

The Windup Girl by Paolo Bacigalupi

 

 

The Strange Affair Of Spring Heeled Jack by Mark Hodder

 

go to Steampunk.com for lots more, the genre goes back over 20 years now so there's lots to find.

I'm new to the genre, but I enjoyed these stories. Paul Kater is also one of my favorite authors. Check out his other books, they are just fun, easy reads.
