I love the idea of steampunk (and dieselpunk), but I have to admit, I've been more disappointed than not at the execution. The author is too into the worldbuilding to worry about engaging characters, or plots that make sense, or they don't think things through (read a novel once where a guy touched something charged with electricity with a piece of metal...and didn't get shocked? I realize there are non conductive metals out there, but it seems the kind of thing that needs at least a half sentence). To do steampunk right, you really need to be a student of the history of science, I think. And most authors are of the 'garters, goggles, and kick ass heroines with derringers' vein.
