He is noted for a distinctive, humorous style, as well as being one of the pioneers of the steampunk genre of science fiction.
Sharing the character of villain Ignacio Narbondo; The Digging Leviathan and its sequel Zeuglodon are contemporary fantasies set in 1960s California, while the remainder are steampunk novels set in Victorian England.
