In print

Modern steampunk

16th Century

18th century setting

19th century setting

20th/21st century setting

  • Jigsaw Men by Gary Greenwood
  • The Peshawar Lancers by S.M. Stirling -- Meteors devastate Europe and America in the 19th century, causing much of the British upper class to flee to India. The story is set in 2025 in a thoroughly Indianized Angrezi Raj (British Empire), with its capital in Delhi.

Other setting

Quasi-Victorian science fiction

  • The Diamond Age by Neal Stephenson -- A steampunk-flavored adventure set in a nanotechnological future, with much of the action in a neo-Victorian society
  • The Peshawar Lancers by S.M. Stirling -- Meteors devastate Europe and America in the 19th century, causing much of the British upper class to flee to India. The story is set in 2025 in a thoroughly Indianized Angrezi Raj (British Empire), with its capital in Delhi.
  • Queen Victoria's Bomb by Ronald Clark -- in the mid 19th century; a physicist gets the idea of isotopic separation after seeing pebbles graded by size on a pebble beach, and makes an atomic bomb. He intends to use it to end the Crimean War, but it never gets used, and no difference is made to history.
  • To Visit the Queen by Diane Duane -- Interference by the Lone Power results in a contaminated alternate universe in which Victorian Britain has developed (and used) atomic weapons.
