The Airships and Clockwork Steampunk Bundle - Curated by Kevin J. Anderson

We are building up reading steam for a brand-new collection, the Airships and Clockwork Steampunk StoryBundle.

I've put together a baker's dozen titles of gears and zeppelins, mechanical dragons, lost cities, frock coats, and tea, the best books from indie authors, all for whatever price you choose to pay. A portion of the money directly benefits the Challenger Learning Center for Space Science Education, and the earnings support indie authors.

In my own Mr. Wells & the Martians, join H.G. Wells and his professor T.H. Huxley on an urgent mission to Mars to prevent the war of the worlds. Also, specially created for this StoryBundle, the Clockwork Boxed Set includes both of my steampunk fantasy adventure novels coauthored with Neil Peart, the late, legendary lyricist and drummer from Rush—Clockwork Angels and Clockwork Lives.

Anthea Sharp's The Perfect Perfume shows you the Victorian era like you've never imagined it before! Twelve enthralling alternate-history tales featuring intrepid heroines, hidden magic, and rollicking steampunk adventure. Marie Andreas brings Vampires, aliens, and tea—oh my! to A Curious Invasion.

Clockwork Gears and Magic Swords by Louisa Swann is a StoryBundle exclusive! Magic and gears and a taste of the weird—seven grand adventures that tickle the soul and tease the imagination. Imagine moving from New York to California on a steam-powered horse with a giant for a companion in J.R. Murdock's Golden West: Westward, Ho!

Robert E. Vardeman's Gateway to Rust and Ruin: Their world was used up. Now they want ours, steam and all. Kristen S. Walker puts on steampunk lenses to show the truth about a pop singer's dark past in Amena's Rise to Stardom. Kevin McLaugliin's Midnight Visitors: When her person becomes the target of assassination, what's a poor cat to do? Solve the problem with tooth, claw, and brains!

In Mechanical Dragons: Fire and Water, Bobbi Schemerhorn warns that mixing inexperience with magic may cause dragons! Gun magic fuels an epic adventure in Tenlyres by Timothy Niederriter. Stroll through Tracy Cembor's Gaslight Carnival, where fancy and freak walk hand in hand. And finally, Travis Heermann has a steampunk-horror novella, Where the Devil Resides—a supernatural Apocalypse Now. With alligators. – Kevin J. Anderson
