Where engineering and love rule envision an altrnate world. Wherever dreamers and tinkerers craft and re-craft an environment of clockworks, automatons, calculating devices, and other marvels that never were. Wherever researchers and schoolgirls, reasonable people and Romans, intergalactic bandits, utopian revolutionaries, and smart orphans resolve crimes, escape from massive setbacks, consult oracles, and float over volcanoes in steam powered airships. Below, fourteen experts of speculative fiction, including two visual storytellers, accept the styleis proven styles and refashion them in unexpected ways and options as varied as Appalachia, Historic Rome, potential Sydney, and alternative Florida.
