I loved Novik's first entry in this series, His Majesty's Dragon. Her books are kinda a smash up of Horatio Hornblower (age of sail, Napoleonic wars) and Anne McCaffrey (dragons!) but with its own individual twists that make it like no other. What stood out to me in the first book was that she made ...
M-am îndrăgostit de seria “Temeraire” a lui Naomi Novik şi de stilul autoarei încă de la primul volum, “Dragonul Majestăţii Sale”. De aceea, mă doare inima să îi dau doar patru flori de vanilie de cinci, însă vreau să fiu corectă cu mine însămi şi cu cititorii mei.După aflarea rasei din care Temerai...

This is the second book in the alternate history series about Temeraire, the dragon captured as an egg from the French and inadvertently hatched at sea and induced into captivity by the ship's captain, Will Laurence. Where the first book focused on Temeraire's growth and training as a part of the Ae...
This book was still very good although i didn't enjoy it as much as the 1st. There wasnt as much action and excitement it was all about them being force back to china and having to play political games so that temeraire can stay in england
