Publishing house Tachyon Publications and editors Ann and Jeff VanderMeer have agreed to make their new fiction anthology, Steampunk, available for pre-order at a discounted price!  This volume, priced at $14.95, is being offered at $12.00, including free shipping within the United States. Shipping outside the United States will be by Global Priority Mail: $9.50 to Canada and $11.00 to our friends in Europe and Australia.
 
In addition, books ordered through this offer will arrive signed by the editors. Signed and personalized…they will even draw little zeppelins!
 

And yet, even little zeppelins may not be enough to entice you. This is understandable. Therefore, I am quite pleased to announce that the first 10 people who order this anthology via this offer shall also receive a signed copy of author Jay Lake's Mainspring, heralded as "an instant steampunk classic" by Cory Doctorow of Boing Boing. In addition, the first three people will also get a copy of Lake's follow-up novel Escapement when it is released in June.

Update!

Do to the fabulous response of Steampunk Workshop readers Jeff has decided to award copies of Mainspring to the first 20 rather then 10 responders!  Thanks Jeff!  that's very generous! But alas it means that they're all gone now and the late-comers will have to settle for personalized notes and Zepplins!

What might one expect to find within the covers of this anthology? Metal men, clattering clogs, hydraulic horrors, dashing daredevils, corseted courtesans, and, of course, many and various airships—along with all the thrills and rarified pleasures that you could ever hope to enjoy.
 
Steampunk features work from Michael Chabon, Neal Stephenson, James P. Blaylock, Joe R. Lansdale, Mary Gentle, Ted Chiang, Michael Moorcock, Jay Lake, Molly Brown, Stepan Chapman, Ian R. MacLeod, Rachel Pollack, Paul Di Filippo, Rick Klaw, Jess Nevins and Bill Baker. In addition, a recommended reading list and other resources are included for your further reading enjoyment.
 
Be sure to reserve your copy before May 15, the expiration date for this kind offer.
