A fine end to a great series. I'm going to miss not having Mr. Sharp's adventures to turn to in times of need.

Now that I've finished the complete trilogy, I find myself not only in awe of Mr. Westerfeld's fabricated alternate history, but also to how masterfully he attached it to his narrative. Barking spiders! Well done.

But now I'm on to Kirsten Miller's first Kiki Strike book: Inside the Shadow City. Can't wait! ( )

The final installment of an excellent series. Spectacular! Although all the books were very good, my favorite of the three is Behemoth, the 2nd book, partly because of its setting in Istanbul. Goliath adds more involvement by the US and the American media which was interesting, but I didn't find it as fascinating as all of the intrigue with the Ottomans. Great series! ( )

Much better than Behemoth, which took place too much on land. Here, the story continued in the airship. The endpapers of Leviathan remain the best thing about the trilogy.

What a great read! No love triangles!!!!! Just two awesome kids fighting to save their world. Set in WWII with a very different set of weapons. ( )

An excellent ending to a good YA series with the story neatly wrapped up. I enjoyed listening to Alan Cumming's reading of the trilogy. This was a fun alternate history steampunk WWI story.

To everyone who loves a long-secret romance, revealed at last.

"Siberia," Alek said. The word slipped cold and hard from his tongue, as forbidding as the landscape passing below.
