His Majesty's Dragon (Temeraire, Book 1)
€œJust when you think you€ve seen every variation possible on the dragon story, along comes Naomi Novik. . . . Her wonderful Temeraire is a dragon for the ages.€Â€"Terry Brooks
Aerial combat brings a thrilling new dimension to the Napoleonic Wars as valiant warriors rise to Britain€s defense by taking to the skies . . . not aboard aircraft but atop the mighty backs of fighting dragons.
When HMS Reliant captures a French frigate and seizes its precious cargo, an unhatched dragon egg, fate sweeps Capt. Will Laurence from his seafaring life into an uncertain future€“and an unexpected kinship with a most extraordinary creature. Thrust into the rarified world of the Aerial Corps as master of the dragon Temeraire, he will face a crash course in the daring tactics of airborne battle. For as France€s own dragon-borne forces rally to breach British soil in Bonaparte€s boldest gambit, Laurence and Temeraire must soar into their own baptism of fire.
€œTerrifically entertaining.€Â€"Stephen King
