The spectacular global journey of the living airship Leviathan is reaching its explosive conclusion. Prince Alek and Deryn Sharp find themselves on the final, desperate leg of their round-the-world quest. Their mission is seemingly impossible: put an end to the devastating Great War and finally reclaim Alek’s stolen throne in Austria. However, achieving their goals is incredibly complicated. Their massive biological ship has detoured far from the battlefields of Europe, steaming steadily toward the towering skyline of New York City. To make matters worse, a brilliant but dangerously unpredictable scientist is on board, carrying a secret weapon that could change the fate of the entire world. Meanwhile, the deep bond between Alek and Deryn is tested like never before. Alek still does not know that his bravest friend is actually a girl disguised as a boy to serve in the military. As long-held secrets begin to violently unravel, the crew must survive a thunderous final showdown where absolutely nothing is as it seems.
