Final installment of the YA adventure and world tour started in Leviathan. Happy endings for all, speampunk and biopunk heroes make friends, etc., etc.

Felt like the the third book was the least of the trilogy here -- title was a stretch, after using up the two biblical monsters in I and II... . Then, the plot hinged less upon the characters or their... character, and more upon trying to fit a steampunk, semi-authentic, semi-sympathetic villian into the picture. Oh, and a whirlwind tour of Siberia, Japan, western America, Hollywood, New York.

But, Westerfield delivers the YA goods, and it was a pleasant novel to listen to. Strike that -- it was narrated by Alan Cummings, so it was a DOG'S KNOB FREAKIN' AWESOME AUDIO EXPERIENCE of a decent YA trilogy-capper.
