Notes
-
Steampunk Note: The mechanical prostheses and augmentations of this story are decidedly steampunk in nature, and the early 20th century setting, though later than most steampunk, remains resonant with the typical period of the style. Furthermore, the focus on the outcasts, fringe figures and lowlifes of society, and their relationships with repressive social forces is a common steampunk theme.
