Finally a series about a dragon and the human he bonds with from hatching that is exciting and adventurous! In addition, the historical research is awesome, as well as the "what if . . ." factor of the use of aerial combat between the British and the French.
When HMS Reliant captures a french frigate and seizes an unhatched dragon egg during the war the Napoleon, fate sweeps Captain Will Laurence from his seafaring life into an uncertain future and unexpected kinship with a most extraordinary creature. Thrust into the rarefied world of the British Aerial Corps as master of the dragon he names Temeraire, eh will face a crash course in learning tactics of airborne battle. Temeraire is not only a dragon who welcomes helping fight air battles with the French, his love for Laurence and his eagerness to learn new things with his increasing intelligence gives the reader an interesting ride.
