Steampunk
This is the rip-roaring steampunk sequel to popular “The Buntline Special”, filled with adventure, excitement, and more than a little gun-slinging action! The time is 1882. With the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral behind him, the consumptive Doc Holliday makes his way to Deadwood, Colorado, where he plans to spend the rest of his short life. But one night he gets a little too drunk and loses everything at the gaming table. He realizes that he needs to replenish his bankroll, and quick, so that he can live out his days in comfort. He considers his options and hits upon the one most likely to produce income in a hurry: he’ll use his shooting skills to turn bounty hunter. The biggest reward is for the death of the young desperado known as Billy the Kid. It’s clear from the odds the Kid has faced and beaten, that he is protected by some powerful magic. Doc enlists the aid of both magic (Geronimo) and science (Thomas Edison), and goes out after his quarry. But as he soon finds out, nothing is as easy as it looks.

Bring the magic home… This amazing Wand Remote Control can control your TV and most other electronic things that work via a remote; making you appear to be able to perform some pretty incredible magic tricks. Ever since Harry Potter landed we secretly yearned to be part of the magical world of Witchcraft and Wizardry and now with this wand we’re a step nearer almost. Cast spells to control the TV: flick from channel to channel control the volume and much more. All you have to do is train your wand into learning these commands so you will soon be turning your telly box on and off with a flick of the wand no boring remote needed. After you’ve learnt the basics (it takes a few practice sweeps to get the hang of it) you’ll be able to program your wand to control the volume channel brightness or whatever your usual remote can do. A turning motion will control the volume a sweep up or down will move the channel forward or back a step and even double-tapping on the side will perform whatever you assign it. In all there are 13 different motions to learn and each one can be given a separate task to complete. To do this put your wand into ‘learning mode’ by giving it a quick tap perform the move you want and then press the corresponding key on your remote. The wand remembers it and performs it the next time you do the same move. It’s difficult to emphasise how much fun this is and how cool the effect is when you’re merrily commanding all and sundry around you. The Stereo the TV the computer the lights anything that needs flicking on or off in the room can be controlled by a wave of your wand. Let the sorcery commence! Features: Controls any infrared device most electronics that use a remote control – TVs Stereos etc Can control multiple devices not limited to one The wand can learn 13 commands in total Program the wand by putting it in learning mode performing an action and pressing the corresponding key on the remote control Learns via infrared codes from remote control Sleep mode function after 60 seconds of wand inactivity works on touch Comes packaged in its own beautifully decorated case Requires 2x AAA batteries (included) Suitable for ages 8+ Please note: instructions for the wand are only available in English Full range of 13 actions: Rotate clockwise Rotate anticlockwise Flick upwards Flick downwards Flick left Flick right Tap on top Tap on side Double tap on top Double tap on side Push forward Pull back Big swish Size: Dimensions: 36 x 2.3 x 2.3cm (wand) Dimensions: 39 x 6.5 x 3.5cm (box) – R.K.

Steampunk
Steampunk is the twisted offspring of science fiction and postmodernism, a sassy, unpredictable tongue-in-cheek style of which the incomparable Paul Di Filippo is master. The three short novels in The Steampunk Trilogy are all set in a very alternative nineteenth century, and feature a mixture of historical and imaginary figures. In “Victoria,” a young and lissome Queen Victoria disappears from her throne and is replaced by a sexy human/newt clone. The race is on to find the original Victoria and to hide the terrible secret from the nation. In “Hottentots,” Massachusetts is threatened by monsters from the deep; in “Walt and Emily,” Emily Dickinson hooks up with a robust and lusty Walt Whitman, loses her virginity, and travels to a dimension beyond time where she meets the future Allen Ginsberg.
