===In review===
{{one source|section|date=May 2025}}
In a non-contemporaneous review, Matt Mitrovich, writing for ''AmazingStories.com'', describes ''The Difference Engine'' as "a rich and imaginative glimpse at a world dealing with the opportunities and pitfalls that come with advanced technology", describing it as written in "superb prose [that] helps paint a gritty, but believable setting", and applauding the novel's presentation of realistic, flawed characters, and the authors' "amazing depth of knowledge about the culture and technological capabilities of the era".<ref name=MitrovichAmazStor_2013/>
