review 1: Merci Bragelonne pour ce magnifique livre, superbement edite et qui m'a fourni une nouvelle liste de lectures a venir s'empiler bientot sur ma table de nuit ! Si certains sujets meriteraient d'etre creuses davantage (mais il s'agit d'un dictionnaire, non d'un essai), ceci est amplement compense par les illustrations somptueuses, dont certaines ont -presque- reussi a me reconcilier avec la mode.The Steampunk Bible - buy it, read it, give it around you and let's organise a fancy-dress night !
review 2: A very nice and concise "what is Steampunk"? Great for the person who has no idea, but a good reminder of what steampunk is for the old hand. Is it Art, writing, fashion, DIY, or all of the above. From a writer/reader viewpoint there are many subgenres (gaslight... more romance). But to include the PUNK it must have that rebellion against the inequities of the status quo or establishment.I always take away something of value from reading Jeff VanderMeer's work. This time, I learned how to electrically etch metal tins (fun times ahead) and was introduced to some great music. If you haven't heard of Abney Park, check them out on their website and youtube. Very cool blend of harmonies and a variety of styles. Plus a very SteamPunk theme and style. less
