Steampunk! My old secretary used to really be into steampunk and I always meant to try something in that genre... but with so many books out there as usual I never got around to it. Will definitely need to keep trying.

You could, in addition to the book above try any of the omnibuses put out by the Vandermeers - lots of authors a broad cross section and some non fiction commentary all in handy volumes. There's a mix of stuff out there, varying quality and content.
