In Other news finished reading up a few good books:
A very interesting collection of short stories. In my opinion it's a pretty good collection for the genre. Some of the stories are fantastic others leave me wanting more meat to them but good basics. If I were to suggest a good starter to the genre for those that haven't read any this would be a pretty good starting point. Easy to read through with a good range of styles. To be honest a few of the stories took me a bit to get through mostly because they just didn't engage very much seemed a bit dry, but others honestly made the book, well written engaging and honestly make you not want to put the book down. Over all I'd give it a B+ well worth a read and a good price for the amount of beautiful examples of different takes on the steampunk genre. If you are at all interested in the Steampunk ideals this is a nice primer for what is out there.
Whitechapel Gods, Honestly I enjoyed this one a lot, nice character development, plenty of rich environments, nice tidbits of steampunk gadgets and guns, and honestly a very good story. The beginning takes a little to get used to the ideas and the imagery but once you have a grasp on it it flows very well. The opening honestly does an excellent job of pulling you in and throwing you right in the thick of things. Through out the book there are wonderful, engaging, suspenseful scenes, that honestly make it a hard one to put down. Plenty of twists and turns and very interesting evolution of the main character. Wonderful plot and honestly a must read for anyone at all interested in what the Steampunk genre has to offer. A+
By happenstance i also ran across a very interesting Video game that I honestly hadn't heard much if anything about. I remember hearing the name but thats about all.
