For Laurence and Temeraire, put out to pasture in Australia, it seems their part in the war has come to an end just when they are needed most. Newly allied with the powerful African empire of the Tswana, the French have occupied Spain and brought revolution and bloodshed to Brazil, threatening Britain's last desperate hope to defeat Napoleon. So the British government dispatches Arthur Hammond from China to enlist Laurence and Temeraire to negotiate a peace with the angry Tswana, who have besieged the Portuguese royal family in Rio--and as bait, Hammond bears an offer to reinstate Laurence to his former rank and seniority as a captain in the Aerial Corps. Temeraire is delighted by this sudden reversal of fortune, but Laurence is by no means sanguine, knowing from experience that personal honor and duty to one's country do not always run on parallel tracks.

Now, with League of Dragons, Novik brings the imaginative tour de force that has captivated millions to an unforgettable finish. Napoleon's invasion of Russia has been roundly thwarted. But even as Capt. William Laurence and the dragon Temeraire pursue the retreating enemy through an unforgiving winter, Napoleon is raising a new force, and he'll soon have enough men and dragons to resume the offensive. While the emperor regroups, the allies have an opportunity to strike first and defeat him once and for all--if internal struggles and petty squabbles don't tear them apart. Aware of his weakened position, Napoleon has promised the dragons of every country--and the ferals, loyal only to themselves--vast new rights and powers if they fight under his banner. It is an offer eagerly embraced from Asia to Africa--and even by England, whose dragons have long rankled at their disrespectful treatment. But Laurence and his faithful dragon soon discover that the wily Napoleon has one more gambit at the ready--one that that may win him the war, and the world. Praise for Naomi Novik and her Novels of Temeraire "Novik's influences run the gamut from Jane Austen to Patrick O'Brian, with a side trip through Anne McCaffrey. Her books are completely involving and probably addictive, their central conceit explored in clever detail with a great deal of wit and historical insight."--San Francisco Chronicle "These are beautifully written novels: not only fresh, original, and fast-paced, but full of wonderful characters with real heart."--Peter Jackson "A gripping adventure full of rich detail and the impossible wonder of gilded fantasy."--Entertainment Weekly "A new writer is soaring on the wings of a dragon."--The New York Times "A glorious series whose future status as a genre classic is now assured."--SF Reviews "If you've never read these novels, now is the time to start."--io9 "Enthralling reading."--Time"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C2317678</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C2317678</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Novik, Naomi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2016 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2317678105</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780345522948/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=945550098</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blood of Tyrants]]></title><description><![CDATA[Shipwrecked and cast ashore in Japan with no memory of Temeraire or his own experiences as an English aviator, Capt.

On the heels of his mission to Africa, seeking the cure for a deadly contagion, he has been removed from military service--and his captain, Will Laurence, has been condemned to death for treason.  For Britain, conditions are grimmer still: Napoleon's resurgent forces have breached the Channel and successfully invaded English soil.  Napoleon's prime objective: the occupation of London.  Separated by their own government and threatened at every turn by Napoleon's forces, Laurence and Temeraire must struggle to find each other amid the turmoil of war and to aid the resistance against the invasion before Napoleon's foothold on England's shores can become a stranglehold.  If only they can be reunited, master and dragon might rally Britain's scattered forces and take the fight to the enemy as never before--for king and country, and for their own liberty.  But can French aggressors be well and truly routed, or will a treacherous alliance deliver Britain into the hands of her would-be conquerors?]]></description><link>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C2025353</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C2025353</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Novik, Naomi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2009 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2025353105</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>[a Novel of Temeraire]</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780345496881/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=0223105904</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Golden Age and Other Stories]]></title><link>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C2398539</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C2398539</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Novik, Naomi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2398539105</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781596068292/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=975135420</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blood of Tyrants]]></title><description><![CDATA[aNaomi Novik's beloved Temeraire series, a brilliant combination of fantasy and history that reimagines the Napoleonic wars as fought with the aid of intelligent dragons, is a twenty-first-century classic.

But Captain Will Laurence has been jailed for treason, and his dragon Temeraire consigned to the breeding grounds in Wales. Neither can respond as Napoleon's forces at last make their move across the English Channel and plant the eagle standard on British shores. But when Laurence's prison ship is sunk and he washes ashore near Dover, he begins a desperate search to rejoin his dragon partner.
