What is The Shadow Conspiracy: Tales of the Steam Age about?

The Shadow Conspiracy is a collection of stories set along an alternative timeline, focusing on the dreamers, experimenters and engineers who work their mechanical and metaphysical magic both for good...and evil. Lord Byrons only legitimate daughter, Ada Byron, the Countess Lovelace, has inherited her fathers genius, if not his madness. With Charles Babbage, inventor of the analytical engine, she has invented the automatic sciences, whereby mechanical automata may be created that precisely mimic human action, and even human thought. Automata serve in great homes, factories are becoming increasingly and elaborately mechanized, and steam engines for the burgeoning railways keep their own time schedules. Dirigibles and flying automata have brought the Empire and piracy into the Air Age. But even a golden age casts a long shadow, and the highest dreams of humanity must struggle to rise above the darkness from which they were born.
