About this book

A classic - perhaps THE classic steampunk novel, penned by two of the genre’s founders: William Gibson and Bruce Sterling. The premise of this novel is a simple “What If” question. That question being “What if Charles Babbage had actually developed a real computer during the Victorian age - instead of the partially completed gear-based one he actually developed.”
