The Destruction of Sennacherib
19th century London. A place and a history much like the one we know, and yet changed. As a separist army stands poised for war, two words will determine just how far its course will deviate. Lethal Configuration. It’s the key to saving an empire . . . or annihilating one.

Well, maybe not the most original, but we still thought it was a fun story. Thanks for the comment.
Steampunk, time travel, and Abney Park! What’s not to love? Really enjoyed this one. Another fine episode.
Thanks Dave. We really liked this one too.
[…] The Destruction of Sennacherib is a short story on the Variant Frequencies podcast. I found its overall production striking: use of sounds, music (some of which I recognized as Abney Park), and multiple voices combine to produce a fiction podcast episode not quite like anything I’ve heard before. Good stuff. […]
