The riveting conclusion to Scott Westerfeld's New York Times
bestselling trilogy that's "sure to become a classic" (School Library
Journal).
Alek and Deryn are on the last leg of their round-the-world quest to end
World War I, reclaim Alek's throne as prince of Austria, and finally
fall in love. The first two objectives are complicated by the fact that
their ship, the Leviathan, continues to detour farther away from the
heart of the war (and crown). And the love thing would be a lot easier
if Alek knew Deryn was a girl. (She has to pose as a boy in order to
serve in the British Air Service.) And if they weren't technically
enemies.
The tension thickens as the Leviathan steams toward New York City with
a homicidal lunatic on board: Secrets suddenly unravel, characters
reappear, and nothing is as it seems in this thunderous conclusion to
Scott Westerfeld's brilliant trilogy.
