I ‘ve recently discovered the Steampunk genre, via the excellent Steampunk Tales iPhone app. Now there is even more steampunk content available for the iPhone, in the form of a new “ and free “ issue from the publishers of Steampunk Tales.
Steampunk Tales Free # 1 has just hit the App Store and looks like a great taster for this genre for those who haven ‘t yet had a chance to get to know it.
Here ‘s a little more detail on the content offered in this free issue, as well as plans for more free content in future:
Steampunk Tales Free-#1 contains the first four parts of G. D. Falksen’s An Unfortunate Engagement.
"G. D. Falksen was kind enough to submit the first four parts of his new serial, An Unfortunate Engagement, for publication at no cost. This is the first free content that we have offered. We are planning on releasing free mini-issues of Steampunk Tales as we’re able, between full releases of the ‘zine," said John Sondericker III, Steampulp Publishing’s founder. G. D. Falksen’s An Unfortunate Engagement is a steampunk adventure tale filled with action, excitement, thrills, chills, and of course mad science, set against a backdrop of the Edwardian era. The serial will be continued in future issues of Steampunk Tales.
The publisher ‘s press release also has some good news about the next full issue of Steampunk Tales:
Issue #2, due in mid/late-August, will contain original tales by David Wellington, Brenda Cooper, G. D. Falksen, SatyrPhil Brucato, Jillian Venters and many more. Issue #2 is complete and is currently in the iPhone App Store "approval gauntlet."
I ‘m a real fan of this genre now, and a big fan of the Steampunk Tales series. I ‘m looking forward to diving into the new free issue tonight and to seeing Issue 2 soon as well.
If you want to give the new free issue a look, you can find it in the App Store HERE.
