Specificatii
Naomi 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. From the first volume, His Majesty's Dragon, readers have
been entranced by the globe-spanning adventures of the resolute
Capt. William Laurence and his brave but impulsive dragon,
Temeraire. Now, in Blood of Tyrants, the penultimate volume of the
series, Novik is at the very height of her powers as she brings her
story to its widest, most colorful canvas yet. Shipwrecked and cast
ashore in Japan with no memory of Temeraire or his own experiences
as an English aviator, Laurence finds himself tangled in deadly
political intrigues that threaten not only his own life but
England's already precarious position in the Far East. Age-old
enmities and suspicions have turned the entire region into a powder
keg ready to erupt at the slightest spark--a spark that Laurence
and Temeraire may unwittingly provide, leaving Britain faced with
new enemies just when they most desperately need allies instead.
For to the west, another, wider conflagration looms. Napoleon has
turned on his former ally, the emperor Alexander of Russia, and is
even now leading the largest army the world has ever seen to add
that country to his list of conquests. It is there, outside the
gates of Moscow, that a reunited Laurence and Temeraire--along with
some unexpected allies and old friends--will face their ultimate
challenge . . . and learn whether or not there are stronger ties
than memory. Praise for Blood of Tyrants A first-class entry in a
remarkable and appealing series.--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
Novik's plots and characterizations get more intricate and
plausible with each novel. . . . Novik's re-creation of much of
world history based on the existence of intelligent dragons has
been so well crafted that all eight books in the series are highly
recommended.--Booklist (starred review) Novik combines dragons . .
. with period history to achieve a brilliantly realized re-creation
of military history laced with the fantastic. . . .
Well-crafted.--Library Journal If you've never read these novels,
now is the time to start.--io9 A fun, action-packed read.--San
Antonio Express-News From the Hardcover edition.
