Leviathan - Illustrations by Keith Thompson, part 1
Scott Westerfeld is a popular ‘young adult’ novelist in the science-fiction genre. His book, Leviathan, published in October of 2009, is the first of a trilogy set in an alternate history World War I universe. View the book trailer.
Illustrator Keith Thompson has created a “sort of “Victorian manga” style, part steampunk and part old-fashioned biotech”. Apparently, the plan is to include 50 pieces of art in each book, and most of them will be full page! Beautiful high-quality prints are available for purchase for U$30 and U$50 from the Leviathan section of his site.

These four illustrations are representative of illustrator Keith Thompson’s meticulous work.
Every one has manga action and human drama.
Thanks for the link to the book trailer. I look forward to picking up “Leviathan” and its sequels.
