In 1914, on the eve of war, a fugitive prince and a girl in disguise meet aboard a bioengineered airship, the HMS Leviathan, and change the course of history. Prince Aleksander, would-be heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, is on the run. Deryn Sharp is a commoner, disguised as a boy in the British Air Service. As World War I begins to erupt, Alek and Deryn’s paths cross in the most unexpected way…taking them on a fantastical, around-the-world adventure that will change both their lives forever.
Leviathan is originally a 2009 novel written by Scott Westerfeld and illustrated by Keith Thompson. It is the first work in the Leviathan trilogy, followed by sequels Behemoth and Goliath. It was awarded the title of Best Young Adult Novel by the Aurealis Award in 2009.
