The Difference Engine

The Difference Engine (1990) is an alternative history novel by William Gibson and Bruce Sterling. It is widely regarded as a book that helped establish the genre conventions of steampunk. It posits a Victorian era Britain in which great technological and social change has occurred after entrepreneurial inventor Charles Babbage succeeded in his ambition to build a mechanical computer (actually his Analytical Engine rather than the difference engine). The novel was nominated for the British Science Fiction Award in 1990, the Nebula Award for Best Novel in 1991, and both the John W. Campbell Memorial Award and the Prix Aurora Award in 1992. more »

Lie, cheat, and steal
It seems all you can do
Consequences not in sight
Cause the rules don't apply to you
You think this is so simple
That this is just a game
But more and more every day
Can see beyond your name

For everything you get into
You have a greeting card to get yourself out

Dissenters must be dismissed
With a simple wave of a hand
At worst ignorant and vile
At best they don't understand

The books will remember you for what you are

For everything you get into
You have a greeting card to get yourself out

The books will remember you for what you are
