Laurence and Temeraire has a time of it in this installment. Convicted of being a traitor, Laurence is jailed and Temeraire is remanded to a breeding colony. Both are miserable. Upon falsely hearing of Laurence's death, Temeraire decides that he is going to war. He convinces all the dragons at the colony (about 100) to join him and off they go to fight Napoleon. At the same time, Laurence and Temeraire are needed by the admiralty so Laurence sets off to retrieve Temeraire only to find him gone. A cat and mouse game ensues and then the battle begins.

This is great and leaves the story hanging so book 6 is definitely in the making. I can't wait...Australia here we come.
