Naomi Novik's stunning series of novels follow the global
adventures of Captain William Laurence and his fighting dragon
Temeraire as they are thrown together to fight for Britain during
the turbulent time of the Napoleonic Wars. Former Aerial Corps
captain Will Laurence and his faithful dragon, Temeraire, have been
put out to pasture in Australia - and it seems their part in the
war has ended just when they are needed most. The French have
invaded Spain, forged an alliance with Africa's powerful Tswana
empire, and brought revolution to Brazil. With Britain's last
desperate hope of defeating Napoleon in peril, the government that
sidelined Laurence swiftly offers to reinstate him, convinced that
he's the best man to enter the fray and negotiate peace. So the
pair embark for Brazil, only to meet with a string of unmitigated
disasters that forces them to make an unexpected landing in the
hostile territory of the Incan empire. With the success of the
mission balanced on a razor's edge, an old enemy appears and
threatens to tip the scales toward ruin. Yet even in the midst of
disaster, opportunity may lurk - for one bold enough to grasp it.
