Steampunk
So I finally learned the name to the genre that I have always liked but never knew the title. I've always enjoyed complex geared steam powered machines or flying air ships that have no business defying gravity. I really enjoy the art of it but have never read a book with it as a theme. I'm not a fan of its cousin cyberpunk, with its Blade Runners and Johnny Mneumonics. I fine the dystopias in cyberpunk to be a little disturbing. Anyway, just wondering if any of you are familiar with the genre. Plenty of movies have some steampunk themes/art. I think Stardust is one, the Golen Compass, Wild Wild West, the latest Sherlock Holmes. Not to say these were great movies, but I do like the art.
