A review by vondrake
Morlock Night by K.W. Jeter

4.0

This is a great book. It is one of the first books in the steampunk genre, a term coined by the author himself. I feel like James Blaylock’s Homonculous is a much better example of steampunk, but this is a great alt-history/using literary characters/atlantis/jules verne adventure book. It is a lot of fun and has some interesting ideas. I do wish Tafe had been better fleshed out. I didn’t really get who she was or where exactly she was from.
