Usually, the main thing about the Leviathan trilogy that would intrigue people and lure them to read the first book is creativeness of the technologies. This book continues with the amazing biological and mechanical technologies from the first two books, manages to weave in a plausible history of the world during the early 1900s, and finally concludes the relationship between the characters Alek and Deryn. For “Goliath”, there was so much intriguing parts of a story balanced together. I think this could be one of the best books out of the three mainly because of the different things it left the reader thinking about. The story follows through the perspective of Deryn, a girl pretending to be a male soldier working in the British Air Service, and Alek, an Austrian prince who lives with the threat of the Germans trying to “dispose” of him. This novel involves a British airship made of a whale, called Leviathan, flying around the world as part of their journey during the alternative World War I. “Goliath”, the third and final volume of the Leviathan trilogy written by Scott Westerfeld, is the best way to end this trilogy.
