Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld
The Leviathan Trilogy
Set against the backdrop of an alternate World War I, the story follows two young protagonists from opposing sides of the conflict. One is Alek, the heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, who is on the run after his parents' assassination, and the other is Deryn, a girl disguised as a boy to join the British Air Service. The narrative unfolds in a world divided between the Clankers, who rely on steam-powered machinery, and the Darwinists, who use genetically engineered creatures. As their paths cross, Alek and Deryn must navigate their differences and work together to survive the escalating war and uncover the secrets that could change the course of history.
