Melissa (lissieb7) | 2 comments Hello all! My name is Melissa. I recently discovered the steampunk genre and am anxious to read more! Any recommendations about books or authors would be greatly appreciated. I do enjoy a good mystery and books with a little magic, however, I am open to just about anything. I love books and reading and am always excited to discover new genres and authors. Thanks!

Bittman  (bittman) | 2 comments Boneshaker. Cherie Priest Series:Clockwork Century. There's others I've not read I've heard are good...but of what I have this series I enjoyed the most.

Karen (librarykatz) | 29 comments Parasol Protectorate series and the Finishing School series by Gail Carriger. Stand alone "Odd Men Out" was pretty good. Scott Westerfeld wrote a series, titles are Behemoth, Leviathan, and Goliath (not the correct order). The Strange Affair of Spring Heeled Jack by Hodder. These are the ones that come immediately to mind.

Bittman  (bittman) | 2 comments Mainspring by Jay Lake are among those which I've heard are good. I believe this one is part of a trilogy.

Professor | 2 comments The half made world, the rise of ransom city


Alison (Lady Coffin) S | 16 comments one I found good that I don't see mentioned is The Affinity Bridge by George Mann.
Also would recommend Tesla by Mark Lingane, Slave To Marshmallows: A Steampunk Fairy Tale, the Gears of a Mad God series by Brent Nichols, Flash Gold Chronicles series by Lindsay Buroker.
Then some of the better known and maybe already mentioned ones:
Parasol Protectorate and Finishing School by Carriger, Gail, the Leviathan series by Scott Westerfeld, The Clockwork Century series by Cherie Priest, Bannon & Clare series by Lilith Saintcrow and Age of Steam series by Devon Monk.
I might have doubled up on some mentioned, and I know I am leaving out some because they have already been mentioned. Enjoy.
