I always get the chills from the last lines: "The question is: Do you oil your war machines? Or... Do you feed them?"
I stand with the people saying this would be a great movie. It would be epic. I also think Studio Ghibli would do wonders for it.
It is one of those rare war-depicting gems that show both sides as equals, not making either one out to be the bad guys.
I am still waiting
I still want a movie on the same scale as the LotR movies. But I don't trust Hollywood to get this series right as a Live Action film, after what's been done to Percy, Eragon, Ender, and Artemis Fowl. I want this as a three-hour animated epic, kark it all!
I am reading Goliath right now and I thought the exact same thing. Studio Ghibli DO IT!
And now it's announced that it will be a 2025 Netflix anime series produced by the anime studio Orange, with some songs composed by Studio Ghibli composer, Joe Hisaishi.
Bro predicted the Anime coming out
Biopunk and Steampunk come together. As classic and original as it gets. I just can't express how much I love this book series. Scott Westerfeld, YOU ARE THE MAN!!!
This is definitely one of my favorite book-series; the raw power of its heart and imagination are enough to make anyone into a fan.
No idea about why but i feel like ghibli should do a movie based on this book. It would be totally awsome...
yeah they already did howls walking castle which is basically just this but without the beasts
That would be amazing I'd love to see it!
THEY'RE MAKING AN ANIME
They got Joe Hisaishi doing the music for the anime! You kinda called it!
Where did you get that music info out of curiosity? I’d love for it to be true
I first read Leiathan when I was 13 years old. Now, 10 years later, I reread it, and finally ordered the two last books in the series (Behemoth and Goliath), fullfilling a promise to myself to know what happens next in Alek's and Deryn's story. This book is just wonderful, and I highly recommend it. Greetings from Mexico!
It would be so cool to see this as a movie. A good movie.
Thanks for the feedback!!!
Elise San no. Because whomever does it will ruin it. Like they’re gonna ruin Artemis Fowl.
@@Legba85 you arent wrong
Well, you get an anime. 2025
@@stannovoselski5770 it’s been 7 years 😭 thank you for this comment! I am so excited
I'm going to shamefully admit I'm not typically one who read often, due to my really short attention span while reading. But this was the first book in years that hit it off with me, I adore Deryn's character, and wish I could've been her! I appreciate the art added to the book, not only wonderfully drawn with detail, it also helped me visualise the characters and situations better! As someone who likes history, this was a really fun twist and full of adventure. I absolutely loved it and now have a favourite book that I can gush to people about! Like many others are saying, I think if this were turned into a movie it would be amazing! Done right, though. Even better, maybe a three-season Netflix-exclusive type thing. Regardless, I loved this book and can't wait to finish the trilogy ♡
*WELP!!!!*
Keith Thompson Is such an amazing artist, he deserves to be recognised much more widely.
These books are so good, too! One of my favourite trilogies.
I demand a movie
+Jack Bartley huh. Why?
Jack Bartley How would you know what my tastes are? It's a good series. It is what it is. The guy had a story and told the world. He followed through with his dream and came true.
I'm not seeing an answer. You just don't have a good reason. And "it just sucks" isn't enough.
Jack Bartley
*you're

First, I'm not a kid. I'm 30. Second, God is great indeed and third, don't be a troll.
make this into a total war game and im gonna lead the war as clanker...

THIS SERIES IS SO GOOD. READ IT RIGHT NOW.
+Abby Thanks for the feedback!
I'll fight as a clanker. I much rather feed my fellow comrades rather than feed my machines.
Plus who wants to clean up after a giant living tank?
If either of you have read the book you'd no that the Leviathan as well as many other Darwinist creatures are 100% self sustaining.
In the book the Leviathan and all subspecies on board are self sustaining because of the bees on board the only reason they would have starved is because it was too cold in Switzerland and climate can screw any method of war. Example during ww2 when the Germans invaded the USSR during a certain battle oil was literally freezing inside of takes.
@@orionknight4803 so how do they make these animal weapons without it being considered animal abuse? lmao
@@007ferguson007 They are bred for that purpose it's not much different then when armies around the world charged horses into cannon fire are you going to go back in time and tell them to stop abusing animals... well even if you did they wouldn't care because it was the norm at the time.
I read Leviathan, just because I saw it in the store and thought it sounded awesome, and I loved every bit of it. Then I snatched up Behemoth and read it in one day. Man it is awesome. Deryn is one of the best characters ever! I wish that each of the books would be adapted into animated movies, by Miyazaki.
I totally am a Darwinist and any body agree with me they need to make a movie now about this book?
You darn clankers! But lets ally and partition for a movie!
reddragon122100 I wholeheartedly agree with your idea of a movie, but I think it should be animated, 2D in the style of the illustrator, but not just motion tweens.
Yes! Totally!!!! I would love it to be 2D
+THE RAPSCALLIOUS RED DRAGON I agree, but I am Clanker all the way...
Forget making this into a movie someone make this into an RTS game with two different factions clanker or Darwinist if someone does that I will be they're slave for a whole year
I dont understand why they would make ender's game a freakin movie while this incredible idea is left alone!
I'm so happy this finally got an adaptation! I wish it was the studio behind Castlevania or Mir, but I'm happy its getting love.
Trust in Studio Orange, they're one of the best Anime Studios out there atm.
I highly recommend watching Trigun Stampede if you want to know how they do action.
And also Land of the Lustrous since it's one of the prettiest shows that came out in 2017.
There really needs to be a movie
+Originalname 88 Thanks for the feedback!

*WELP!!!*
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE BOOK SERIES OF ALL TIME! WE NEED A MOVIE! Also I'm with the clankers
Read the whole trilogy. The books are truly wonderful!!! Plot is great and the illustrations are flawless.
I absolutely LOVED this book series. They should totally make it into a movie!
they neeeeed to make a movie of this series. It could be so good
y the way if they do they need westerfeld as a creative consultant
*NETFLIX!*
I just finished these books and gosh, probably the best series I've read all year. Definitely recommend the books to everyone.
YOU, READING THIS COMMENT. DON'T HESITATE. READ.
One of the best series i've ever read! Thank you Scott, this was an wonderful story to experience.
I'm reading this book right now and I love it. I think it will become one of my favorite books. It has everything that I find interesting in it.
I’ve always dreamed of this book series getting an animated adaptation, but never in my years that I think it would be an anime. By the same studio that made Beastars no less. I’m looking forward to it.
Finished this book last night (was reading two days straight!). A fantastical and well crafted story; really filled me with joy. I can't wait for the next book.
Need to integrate this into a movie or video game. Preferably both.
Nand Ahuja or maybe an animated series
Black Gold Online
Just about to finish the trilogy. I loved this book!
This book is amazing. Im on chapter 22 right now ♥
the pictures of each countries are simply amazing. The first thing u notice is Russia describe as a bear trying to take Austria but Germany has a Big Gun aiming at it( They will invade Russia later, 1940 i think) While France is describe as a wounded anteater fleeing away looking for help. While Italy is describe as a snake, Italy join the Axis but had other motive such as betraying Germany and leeching off Germany (asking for help). Simply amazing, though I can't make out Britain.
8 years later, I’m still a fan. Hell, I’m writing a story cause I was inspired by this.
Keith Thompson = most amazing artist ever.
AN MMORPG. THAT'S WHAT THIS NEEDS.
No. We need an RTS game based on these books with two factions
Darwinist faction clanker faction ( personally if choose clanker)
Try Black Gold Online. Closes thing to Leviathan that I can think of. It's not the best game but hey, at least there's something.
YES!
I’m back here because of the news of a new series :)
Greatest book series ever! His series "Uglies" is phenomenal too but this book was so good I couldn't stop reading until I had burned through all three. It only took me two days and I loved every minute.
He was at Wordstock in Portland this Saturday, talking about Leviathan. Needless to say, I was hooked. Bought my copy there and had it signed.
Currently reading Behemoth.
I waited for all these years to get this trilogy and couldn't find them in my own language (Spanish9, but I'm delighted.
Loved this book series so much! Its one of my favourites along with Harry potter, lord of the rings and twilight and a new sci-fi series keepers of the light. I love reading new series' I get so enticed in every book. Cant wait to find more series' to read. Loved this so much!!
This absolutely needs to get its own movie.
This is so underrated ;_;
movie plsss
I borrowed this book from my school library (first person to do so I must add). It was so awesome I read through it in just over a day. I have to say it's one of the best books I've ever read and I can't wait for the sequel!
AGGHH!! i love these books so much!!! i'm so glad i found leviathan at my school's book fair, because i've fallen in love with them! best books ever... :)
Keith Thompson just ROCKS!!
I love his designs. He is the best living
visionary artist in the world!
this book series has honestly shaped my book preferences for the rest of my life
" do you oil your war machines or do you feed them" made my skin crawl. If ordered this book now and I'm looking forward to it!
It does turn into something romantic but it's also filled with action and steampunk and war and disguises that it becomes something quite amazing. This is a really great book. You won't regret ever reading it.
Keith's illustrations are simply amazing.
I'm currently reading this book in Brazilian Portuguese version, it's so enjoyable.
THIS TRILOGY NEEDS TO BE A MOVIE RIGHT THIS SECOND SO I CAN WATCH IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN (yes i love it that much)
The books are incredible! I am halfway through the last one, Goliath, and I am so excited for the ending! I highly recommend this book!
Today Netflix announced an anime for it, to be released in 2025!
I've read this trilogy several times...finaly seeing the trailer...chills...
I would feed them. I loved the series and I practical demand a movie! It's one of their best books!!
BRUUUH THIS BOOK IS GETTING AN ANIME! I'M SO HYPED! IT TOOK TOO LONG FOR IT TO GET NOTICED! AN UNDERRATED YAL GEM!
Dude this was a completely random link from the video I was watching, but really. I'm extremely happy now. I need a book to read and I love Scott Westerfield.
All three books are amazing! But if I have to choose a side, it would be with the clankers!
i have this book, I almost finished it... ITS AWSOME!!!! Even if you don't like books, if you like action and machines and stuff like that... YOU WILL LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!
I am reading this book for English and it is SO AMAZING!!!!!!
God I LOVE this book!!!! One of my favorites!
I am a colombian kid, and my sister (also colombian) sent me this book right from Australia. I am waiting for it, it looks awesome :D
need some help please ! I recently finished those books and gosh , I was left with one of the deepest voids I've ever felt . can you please commend me a similar book to fill up this void ?
Not quite like it (Leviathan is way too original!) but look for good steam-punk novels, that should help somewhat!
Yeah actually, I read a great cyberpunk series called the Grimnoir Chronicles. Its set in the 1930's but with a different history( just like this book) The first one is calle Hard Magic. It was pretty good.
try and read the fog diver , im currently reading that series by joel ross, check it out
Damn it, I WANT MORE! It can't end with just the three books.
I was so happy and mad at the end of the seris. I couldnt believe it was over!
LOVE THIS BOOK HARDCORE SO MUCH!!! X3
Like other of his books, Westerfeld does AMAZINGLY!!! Plus Thompson's work too.
I can hardly wait for October for the next one!!!! X3
@Sakuragal212 another point to consider: animals can become ill, you have to feed them even when they are not in use, you have to cure them. A machine can be turned on or off.
A severed machine limb can be replaced. An animals' one doesn't.
Once you build a machine, it works. After an animal is born, you have to make him grow and train him.
Favorite book as a young boy, would have loved a movie or a game, good reads.
so what are the chance someone can trun Leviathan into a Table top R.P.G. even thew I think it might be possible if you mix savage worlds weird wars and deadlands setting maybe
Bill Trent I'm a DM for a few online D&D groups, and I'm interested in doing this. PM or reply if you're interested in joining up when we start it.
I've read this book book sooooo many times. I love it!
Love the artwork for this book, was the reason i picked it up, but it is a pretty good read too, which i feel validates my purchase based upon judging a book by it's cover.
Saw this trailer before, but somehow I forgot about the name and couldn't find it again. Thank goodness for a certain someone that reminded me of this.
I just finished reading the second book again and I cant stop re-reading portions of the first.
Wow, that's cool! Fantastic visuals. I couldn't look away. The voice over is perfect. I'm so glad that I didn't have to read anything during this trailer. I could just gawk at the images while listening to the narrator. I enjoyed it so much that by the end of the trailer, I was smiling without realizing it. Gotta read this book!
I discovered this video just by mere randomness, following a link from "War of The Worlds Goliath". At first I was a bit curious, after seeing some articles I decided to buy the first book, I loved it and immediately bought the second book and loved it even more. I am damn exited for the third, I must say that these are one of the few books that I wanted to read again just after finishing them.
Man I loved that movie, despite the reviews
"Way to confuse kids even more"
In the book itself, Westerfeld does say that it's an alternate history. At the end, he gives a list of what he's changed, and a short lesson on what the real story was.
Of course, it's not his job to instruct people on basic facts. It's his job to tell a damn good story, and he hit the ball out of the park with this one.
I oil my war machines, and there are only six words i can think of to describe this book;
BEST. BOOK. I. HAVE. EVER. READ.
MAKE THIS A MOVIE ALREADY!!!!
Clanker for life.
promoted videos, if you perform a search in the search bar, they usually pop up on the right hand side, also under related videos they are highlighted in yellow. Featured videos, if you do a search for example will appear on top of the list first on the left hand side, and in the related videos will have a gray highlight.
Amen, sister. I need to find the second book now.
i've read most of the series waiting for the third one to be returned to my library so far love it
Who’s here because there’s an anime series just announced?
This series was INCREDIBLE. I wish there was more...
More importantly I wish someone would make this into a film series!
I bought this book and another at the same time, deciding the other one was better. I read about 25 pages to a great dissapoinment. But after reading this book, its probally placed in my top 3 favorite books. Nothing compares to how interesting this story is.
If this series or the Ugly series could just make a movie that would be great, thank you. I love Scott Westerfeld!
Thanks for the feedback!!!
What's the ugly series about?
"Do you oil your war machines? Or do you feed them?" MAN that's a hell of a phrase. This'd make a great movie, instead of the cheap sequels and love films. I really have to read this, it's a lot like Mortal Engines but so different.
I love this book, i just read it. Probably the best novel i have ever read so far, and i am serious.
I would kill for an animated series or a movie trilogy of Leviathan. 😫
Edit 2023: Still waiting....
Edit 2024: YESSSSSSS!!!!!
Netflix announced an adaptation, if you haven't seen it yet. Its snuck in another trailer.
I saw it last night. I will hold my judgment @@kiptelgat
the leviathan is the name of the ship that Deryn works on, it is also the ship Alek is brought to. read the book its really good
Im a Darwinist/Clanker from the south...
If you read the series and know about America then you see why.
I just finished Goliath. A fantastic trilogy, and I may have never read it if I have not seen this trailer from a "War of the Worlds Goliath" link. Just to proove that video trailers for books is a fantastic marketing idea.
BTW Clanker for life.
but mixing life threads is cool to.
I hope one day Scott Westerfeld will write a Sequel Trilogy set during World War 2, I want to see what Clanker contraptions and Darwinist monsters will come out of that War.
@bloodsanity Actually yes, she is. It says so in the third book, Goliath.
I think I heard someone say its good, it sounds like a cool premise, I'm interested in early 20th century and the trailer's well made. Sign me up!
This would make a great anime series. So much plot to build off of.
LOVE THE ENDING QUOTE!!!!
how did this get an anime, I see my comments from 12 and 2 years ago on this video being absolutely bummed about this never getting a movie adaption.
Western material getting anime adaptations isn't exactly a new thing.
Like how Anne of Green Gables, Wizard of Oz and Little Women got a 50 episode long adaptations back in the 80s.
Or how Mass Effect, Halo and Supernatural got animes in the early 2010s.
Or Count of Monte Cristo and Deltora Quest back in the 2000s.
The illustrations of Keith Thompson are so fantastic ... if the book is not traslated to spanish ipll buy it in english!!! amazing!
I love these books more than MOST THINGS.
Well, its a typical cyberpunk novel with the crazy machines, and weird beasties, and all the usual 1920's adventure stuff, and the obligatory girl masquerading as a boy. BUT it does sound fun.
and sometimes, thats is enough
Read it then. You'll be impressed.
1920's ? You mean 1910's.
It is one of my favorite series. And have you seen the artwork? It's simply stunning. The artwork from this video is from the book, drawn by the illustrator, Keith Thompson. :)
im in the meddle of reading the last book. Its bitter sweet because its such an amazing series but this is the last one so i would never again will be able to hear what happens after.
This should be a movie. It's mandatory.
