I loved Stephen Baxter's Anti Ice and his "sequel" to H.G. Wells's The Time Machine called The Time Ships (both a more "hard sci fi" take on the genre).

I'm also really digging Lindsay Buroker's novella series set in the Yukon that starts with Flash Gold (the first one is free)

Michael Coorlim's series is also quite good: And they called her Spider (and the first one is free as well).

I've not yet read Michael Moorcock's The Warlord of the Air but I hear that is also pretty excellent.

EDIT: For a kind of more out-there (but tons of fun) steampunk, check out Michael Forstchen's Lost Regiment Series (the first book is Rally Cry) about a Civil War regiment transported to an alien world where the natives raise and eat humans as cattle. The steampunk doesn't really show up until the 2nd or 3rd book, but a very engrossing series.

I agree about Baxter. His characters are almost uniquely poorly drawn and he manages to turn high-concept SF ideas into quite boring stories. I have enjoyed his anti-ice stories though, and The Time Ships was a half good successor to the Time Machine.

The Time Ships by Stephen Baxter.

Includes all of the above(WW2, multiple alternate time lines, A time machine, War, Gov't meddling, etc. Sequel to the Time Machine. Fucking awesome.

Finished my third "reading" and first listening-to of The Time Ships, a great book, an official sequel to The Time Machine written by Stephen Baxter. If you like amazingly complex stories of time travel, it's a real treat. Best of all was the performance by the reader, who got all the accents perfect, including Nebogpifel, the Morlock from the year 657,208. Highly recommended!

Nobody mentioned Gregory Benford Galactic Center series. It is pretty ambitious in scale (though not as much so as Star Maker).

Also encompassing huge scope is Baxter's novel The Time Ships.
