Andrea's Reviews > Behemoth

This book carries on where Leviathan left off, with our young heros approaching the technically-neutral Ottoman Empire in a giant living airship in the middle of an alternate history WWI. Got it?

I never had sufficient time to sit down and read this through, which could easily be done in a few sittings, so I never felt like I had time to get into the story. It was fast paced and interesting, but I just didn't ever have the chance to get invested in the plans and their execution. So while I feel that I would have gotten really sucked into the story if I had ever had proper time for it, I felt a little disconnected with this one, which I think is my fault, and not the book's.

I still love the characters, and in this book we get to know some of the adults, as well, who also turn out to be interesting and fun. It was all too short, and I can't wait for the next one.
