Description
Naomi Novik's latest novel is set against the backdrop of war and revolution in 19th-century South America. Capt. Will Laurence and his fighting dragon Temeraire are tasked with negotiating a peace between Britain and an African empire, but their mission is complicated by French occupation and internal strife.
As they embark on this perilous journey, Laurence and Temeraire face a series of unmitigated disasters that leave them forced to make an unexpected landing in the Inca empire. With failure looming and the success of their mission hanging in the balance, they must confront new dangers and old enemies.
With its unique blend of historical fiction and fantasy, this novel is a gripping tale of loyalty, duty, and honor. Will Laurence and Temeraire be able to navigate the treacherous landscape of war and politics to achieve their goal?
