This well crafted hardcover is very aesthetically pleasing but the stories are more punk than steam, as is apropos of a YA anthology.
My error, having judged the book solely by its cover, and the look/feel of the pages, before purchasing.

Well, a bit of a disappointment (·•᷄_•᷅ ).
The first 2 tales were 2star nonevents (｡•́︿•̀｡).
I expected more from the 3rd story, a 40pger by Cory Doctorow, 20pgs too long but did contain a satisfying case of "come uppance" & closed with a "happily ever after", 2.5stars.
A graphic novel for the 4th entry (っ- ‸ - ς), well, you know how I feel about gn's....a comic book by anyother name is still, well, not a rose...
