Naomi Noviks triumphant debut, His Majestys Dragon, introduced a dynamic new pair of heroes to the annals of fantasy fiction: the noble fighting dragon Temeraire and his master and commander, Capt. Will Laurence. Now in the latest novel, they soar to new heights of breathtaking action and brilliant imagination.

It is a grim time for the dragon Temeraire. On the heels of his mission to Africa, seeking the cure for a deadly contagion, he has been removed from military serviceand his captain, Will Laurence, has been condemned to death for treason. For Britain, conditions are grimmer still: Napoleons resurgent forces have breached the Channel and successfully invaded English soil. Napoleons prime objective: the occupation of London.

Separated by their own government and threatened at every turn by Napoleons forces, Laurence and Temeraire must struggle to find each other amid the turmoil of war and to aid the resistance against the invasion before Napoleons foothold on Englands shores can become a stranglehold.

If only they can be reunited, master and dragon might rally Britains scattered forces and take the fight to the enemy as never beforefor king and country, and for their own liberty. But can the French aggressors be well and truly routed, or will a treacherous alliance deliver Britain into the hands of her would- be conquerors?
