Larklight by Philip Reeve

Fun, fun, fun! A grand steampunk adventure in the point of view of a very British boy in a very British story with mostly British people and aliens. Oh, and throw in a great bit of science fiction in there to boot.

Also, I learned a new word today. I don't think I've ever seen anyone use the word "tergiversator" before. It took me ages to figure out how to pronounce that (and I'm still probably failing!). Anyway, yes. Fabulous book.
