Her book (graphic novel) is worth it for the footnotes alone (some of which take up more than half a page), even if you don't like steampunk fantasy with Lovela

Her book (graphic novel) is worth it for the footnotes alone (some of which take up more than half a page), even if you don't like steampunk fantasy with Lovelace, Babbage, Boole, Brunel, and more... And who wouldn't?
- jordigh 10y agoI love the depiction of Brunel as some kind of 19th century steampunk Wolverine. And those badass boasts! Some of them based on real historical boasts! "I smell... steam!" "Looks like you need an engineer." "With all the steam I can command, your ladyship." I hope the mythology around these characters keeps on growing.
