Clockwork Canada

Overview

Welcome to an alternate Canada, where steam technology and the wonders and horrors of the mechanical age have reshaped the past into something both wholly familiar yet compellingly different. These fifteen supercharged all-new tales reimagine Canadian historical events, explore other Canadas, and gather inspiration from the northern landscape to make us wonder: what if history had gone a different way?

Reviews

"Steampunk with a Canadian accent - in Clockwork Canada Dominik Parisien has given us a wonderful new way to look at not just Steampunk but also some of the best new Canadian fiction being written. Full of adventure, surprise, unusual inventions and, of course, steam, this anthology will make you remember why you fell in love with Steampunk in the first place." — Ann VanderMeer, Hugo, World Fantasy, and British Fantasy award winning editor

"This is Canadian fiction like you've never seen it before: a buzzing, crackling, supercharged assemblage of thrills and derring-do, secret histories, incredible machines and fantastical creatures. Prepare yourself for a wild ride through a landscape that's somehow recognizable and utterly, gloriously strange." — Helen Marshall, Shirley Jackson Award-winning author of Gifts For The One Who Comes After
