 : Science Fiction, The Angel of the Revolution, 1893


Science Fiction, The Angel of the Revolution, 1893

Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction or science fantasy that incorporates technology and aesthetic designs inspired by 19th century industrial steam-powered machinery. Steampunk works are often set in an alternative history of the Victorian era or American Wild West, in a future during which steam power has maintained mainstream usage, or in a fantasy world that similarly employs steam power. The Angel of the Revolution: A Tale of the Coming Terror (1893) is a science fiction novel by the English writer George Griffith. It told the tale of a group of self-styled terrorists who conquer the world through airship warfare. Led by a crippled, brilliant Russian Jew and his daughter, Natasha (the angel), The Brotherhood of Freedom establish a pax aeronautica over the earth after a young inventor masters the technology of flight in 1903. The hero falls in love with Natasha and joins in her war against established society in general and the Russian Czar in particular
