The Mammoth Book of Dieselpunk

Sean Wallace

Dieselpunk: an emerging retro-futuristic sub-genre similar to steampunk based on the era between the First World War and the start of the Atomic Age merging elements of noir pulp and the past with today’s technology . . . and sometimes a dash of the occult.

Award-winning editor Wallace presents a cutting-edge collection of twenty-five vibrant stories that explore the possibilities of history while sweeping readers into high-powered hydrocarbon-fuelled adventures. Join us in an era when engines were huge fuel was cheap and plentiful and steel and chrome blended with the grit and grease of modern machines.

Praise for The Mammoth Book of Steampunk:

'World Fantasy Award-winning editor Wallace has compiled an outstanding anthology . . . sure to satisfy even the most jaded steampunk fans and engage newcomers and skeptics. Each story exemplifies steampunk’s knack for critiquing both the past and the present in a superb anthology that demands rereading.' Publishers Weekly
