Does it get more so? Because at the moment the only part that I would classify as steampunk rather than Victorian fantasy is the clockwork angel itself.<br /><br />And the tea sounds lovely - I do love me some chai, especially at this time of year. Although I think a strong cup of British Breakfast with a heavy splash of milk would fit the novel pretty well, too. :)Fyreflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10267651786697866292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291822984443127930.post-15987461394930920072010-11-14T18:34:27.393-05:002010-11-14T18:34:27.393-05:00I've not read any steampunk stories but I do o...I've not read any steampunk stories but I do own one by Cherie Priest, BONESHAKER.
