A circus is not all it seems. A monster… and opportunity… waits in ocean mists. A friendship is out of time. A group of kids escape scavenger dogs in a brutal world. A water sprite is far from home. And a machine generates romance. These stories and others await in this steampunk and dystopian anthology by Australian authors, sure to transport you into worlds of danger and wonder.
“a fun and original anthology, reimagining steampunk dystopia in new ways that will appeal to a younger YA readership aged 12+ or fans of Cassandra Clare and Scott Westerfeld.”
- Books+Publishing
“Whether we realise it or not, dystopian tales impact us long after we’ve consumed them. They force us to listen and learn. They inspire thinking and reflecting about ourselves and the world around us, changing who we are on the inside as well as the actions we take on the outside”
- Kids’ Book Review
“Stepping Sideways is an exhilarating and wonderful read. This collection of short stories by established and emerging authors takes us into the worlds of Steampunk and Dystopia, to experience danger and wonder by turns - and in rapid succession! I’m going to go out on a limb and say that, at its heart, this is actually a book about humanity. It’s timeless, relatable and will definitely spark deep thought and conversation.”
