Introducing George Mann's The Affinity Bridge
posted by Emma on February 25, 2008 02:20 PM
Hot off the press, a fabulous Steampunk tale and our big title of Christmas 2008, featuring Crown investigator Sir Newbury and his astonishingly proficient assistant Miss Hobbes, signed up last week, out October of this year, cover done in one mammoth sitting on Saturday. What do you think? Hint: isn't it just about the most gorgeous thing you've ever seen?

That is just about the most gorgeous thing I've ever seen. I am both impressed and jealous.

Wow! You were right, that's a worship-worthy cover. I'd buy it.

Wow, that pretty much took my breath away.

Truly love the design but what does Steampunk mean?!
Posted by: mum on February 25, 2008 06:13 PM
Steampunk is an off-shoot of science fiction where essentially technology is driven by Victoriana, i.e. steam and coal, and where Britain is still a superpower.

You'll love it, mum! x

Yep - it's lovely. Well done you!

Superb superb superb superb.
Well the cover is and I know the book will be. Can`t wait to read it.

It's a great cover - i like things with a lot of panels and consoles and stuff - detailed but contained. And the Moorcock airship compulsory to all steampunk. Good stuff.

This is just gorgeous, and perfectly timed to take advantage of the building, uh, steam for steampunk. (Don't hit me!)

Love it!

"essentially technology is driven by Victoriana, i.e. steam and coal."
- Hmm.. sounds suspiciously like Dad's garage, is that what it is about?
