Short description

Amid an alternative world of airships, cogs, and steam, the Questionable travels the globe, carrying the wealthy and powerful. Aboard the dirigible, high society gambles, relaxes, and plays. Yet, all is not peaceful. Within these Steampunk tales, morals are questioned, love is tested, and clouds float by, oblivious to human suffering.

Extended description

"In A Questionable Affair," an insulted man must protect the villain he is also forced to kill.

A worker finds himself wondering about the worth of sacrifice in "Worthy."

Two impoverished lovers, awarded passage aboard the Questionable, find their love and morals tested amid a new world of opulence in "Unattainable Tangibility."

A man's forgotten crimes awake and haunt him in "The Wait."

Finally, "A Means to Produce" asks how the world might be changed if Karl Marx had become disillusioned with Europe. Traveling to the Raj, the Communist find a new audience to inspire, and India is forever changed.
