Recs if you like Mortal Engines ...

Much of the post/apoc genre is taken up by US-centric fiction, giving a very specific mindset & often a similar type of apocalypse. There's a strong focus on guns & military. Settings outside the US can provide us with unusual, diverse & interesting stories of survival

Sister list to: Zombie Apocs - But Not US-centric

Fictional settings allowed. Some books may cross borders, inc sections in the US. Allowance made for US indigenous authors

Steampunk is a fusion of our history (usually Victorian or western) and science fiction/fantasy with advance technology that runs on steam.

Though there's plenty of names here that you'll recognize! I enjoyed plenty of these as a kid and wanted to share them, especially since most of these authors have other books that get more attention. Plus, books by smaller authors. How many did you read?

Steampunk is a genre typically set in the Victorian era, sometimes Edwardian area with elements of science fiction or fantasy. The key aspect of steampunk is the use of steam for innovations.

Sometimes the steampunk setting plays major roles in the story and plot, sometimes it is just the background setting.
