Praise for The Mammoth Book of Steampunk Adventures (Mammoth Books)

Wallace's smart, provocative collection proves that “steampunk is alive and well” by reaching out to the edges of its mashup sensibilities, with 25 pieces that use the aesthetic elements of clockwork, steam, and magic to tell a diverse range of human stories....This is an expansive display of creative world-building by thoughtful storytellers, boldly ranging well beyond its quasi-historical contexts.
