In addition to my own humble offering, I would recommend to your readers interested in Asian Steampunk Ken Liu's "The Grace of Kings" trilogy (he calls it "Silkpunk"--vaguely Chinese world, dirigibles, palace intrigue, all good stuff) and Jeannie Lin's Gunpowder Alchemy/Clockwork Samurai books. Ken Liu is one of my favorite science fiction writers (and translators--check him out translating "The Three Body Problem" by Cixiu Liu, China's most beloved current science fiction author). Jeannie Lin made her name in historical romances set in China, and she's a lovely writer as well. <br /><br />I would love to see readers getting out of their comfort zones and checking out a bigger, more varied world! Phoebe Darqueeling, in her Steampunk focused-blog, talks about this issue of genre boundaries in her review of "Toru: Wayfarer Returns." https://forwhomthegearturns.com/2016/09/02/steampunk-book-review-toru-the-wayfarer-returns-by-stephanie-r-sorensen/ <br />If Steampunk is new to you, you might like checking out her blog as well--she knows all things Steampunk!<br /><br />Thanks again for hosting!<br /><br />StephanieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15647576521869118953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414275122692230397.post-72585534011417958172017-02-01T12:08:43.875-05:002017-02-01T12:08:43.875-05:00Welcome to my blog Stephanie!

I love seeing Asian influences on Steampunk, as that seems like such an underappreciated culture in the genre! <br />Andra Lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01194158597026288339noreply@blogger.com
