The Red Queen and White Queen can be steampunked up, however the original versions are more Victorian than steampunk.

We are in Steampunk London. I like how the author did that. Very different. Very original.

I do wish the steampunk elements had been in depth. They were only hinted at in small doses. Maybe if the book had been longer then more could have been explored.

First of all, the phrase "the grassy spot" is repeated from the previous paragraph, which wouldn't really be an issue if the phrase "a moment later" wasn't also repeated twice in such a short excerpt. And I'm not quite sure what "from the inside" means. Shouldn't it read "I saw a flash of lamplight from the inside [of the abbey]"? At first, I thought it meant they were already inside the abbey, but it says right there that they are in the grass on the side of the abbey... so maybe it means they are inside the property? I honestly don't know. Having a fun Alice in Wonderland party and need some selfie party props?

Queen of Hearts Alice in Wonderland Door MatThe experience on average lasts 45 minutes to an hour (most people take an hour) and we are fully wheelchair accessible Curiouser and Curiouser is yet another hit from Melaine Karsak, one of my favorite authors. In this she takes the story of Alice in Wonderland and turns it on its head, adding something altogether new to a story very familiar with retellings. A boy with a mop of striking white hair, wearing an expensive but oversized waistcoat, slipped between us and was gone again in a flash. BAhhahABBAhahahAHA!!!! If this was a movie, it would be "so bad that it's good"!! I couldn't believe how crazy everything got at the end. It was ridiculous! Alice, Mad Hatter, das weiße Kaninchen, die Herzogin..., alle bekannten Figuren haben kleinere und größere Rollen. Man erfährt, wie das weiße Kaninchen zu seiner Taschenuhr kommt und nimmt an der berühmten Gartenparty der Herzkönigin teil, mit Flamingos und rollenden Köpfen.

The March Hare doesn’t have a lot of pre-made costumes, but you can take them and embellish them. Another option is to create your own or find handmade costumes which have a steampunk look. You can also add steampunk accessories to the costumes. Curiouser and Curiouser doesn't retell the story of Alice in Wonderland. It is a totally original story by Melanie Karsak that uses the names from Alice in Wonderland to tell what is basically a romance. I'm pretty sure the author is just writing and self-publishing her own fantasies, and that is totally fine. However, I can't help feel that Karsak is misleading the reader by stamping STEAMPUNK ALICE IN WONDERLAND in all-caps on the top of her book. The steampunk elements in this book are minimal and the Alice elements are minimal so... why? Just why? She has a total of four "steampunk fairy tales" books, and I'm sure the other three are similar to this one.Alice in Wonderland is one of my favorite stories ever. Or better said: It's one of my favorite worlds and concepts ever. I've read a lot of retellings during the last few years, some better than others, but I don't think I came across a Steampunk one yet. Let me start this review with the fact that I'm not that into Steampunk and don't know that much about it, but I was curious anyway. Silver Plated Alice in Wonderland Charm Bracelet Alice in Wonderland 3-Tier China Teacup Cake Stand There has been murder in Wonderland! Or has there?! The Queen’s Guard has disappeared and The Wonderland Detective Agency needs your help to find out what happened. This quest is similar to a popular board game you may have played outside Wonderland where the aim is to find out which suspect, in which room with which murder weapon. In case you were wondering about the steampunk elements in this book... they are minimal like I said. Our characters travel in airships and there are some automatons at the end. There is also this stupid mechanical cat that doesn't add to the plot or anything. It is only there so that they could name it Cheshire and call it "steampunk". Ugh. So basically, this book has a steampunk skin (meaning that the steampunk elements are only skin deep). I'm tired of books like this that call themselves "steampunk", but really only have the most stereotypical steampunk aesthetics like corsets, automatons, goggles, parasols, etc.
