About this ebook
From the New York Times bestselling author of A Deadly Education comes the seventh volume of the Temeraire series, as the Napoleonic Wars bring Will Laurence and Temeraire to South America.
“An absorbing adventure.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
The French have invaded Spain, forged an alliance with Africa’s powerful Tswana empire, and brought revolution to Brazil. Captain Will Laurence and his indefatigable fighting dragon, Temeraire, must travel to South America to negotiate with the Incas, who are also being wooed by the French.
If they fail, Napoleon may conquer yet another continent in his campaign for world domination, and the tide of the war may prove impossible to stop.

Naomi Novik does it again. "'Master and Commander' and 'Dragonslayer' all in one" it just doesn't get any better.

Always a delight. Though going a little too far away from history, (I may be wrong) but I don't believe Napoleon had divorced Josaphine, nor gone to Mexico. But then again, if he had indeed had dragon's help maybe he would have?!
