About this product
Product Information
From the New York Times bestselling author of A Deadly Education comes the eighth and penultimate volume of the Temeraire series, in which Will Laurence finds himself shipwrecked in Japan with no memory of his dragon, Temeraire, or his past. "A first-class entry in a remarkable and appealing series." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) This alternate version of the Napoleonic War--with dragons!--ramps up as the eighth and penultimate Temeraire novel takes us to Japan, where a shattered Captain Laurence is washed up on the shores remembering nothing of his past save as the captain of the navy ship Reliant . He struggles to remember why he is in Japan and why he has a startling knowledge of the Chinese language. He has no memory whatever of his dragon, Temeraire--which distresses Temeraire greatly when they are finally reunited. But so great is their bond that the two once again find themselves at the forefront of the war against Napoleon . . . just when all looks most hopeless. Don't miss any of Naomi Novik's magical Temeraire series HIS MAJESTY'S DRAGON * THRONE OF JADE * BLACK POWDER WAR * EMPIRE OF IVORY * VICTORY OF EAGLES * TONGUES OF SERPENTS * CRUCIBLE OF GOLD * BLOOD OF TYRANTS * LEAGUE OF DRAGONS

Reviews
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 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 From the Hardcover edition., Praise for His Majesty's Dragon and the Temeraire series "These are beautifully written novels--not only fresh, original, and fast paced, but full of wonderful characters with real heart. [The Temeraire series] is a terrific meld of two genres that I particularly love--fantasy and historical epic." --Peter Jackson "A terrifically entertaining fantasy novel . . . Is it hard to imagine a cross between Susanna Clarke, of Norrell and Strange fame, and the late Patrick O'Brian? Not if you've read this wonderful, arresting novel." --Stephen King "A splendid series . . . Not only is it a new way to utilize dragons, it's a very clever one and fits neatly into the historical niche this author has used." --Anne McCaffrey "Just when you think you've seen every variation possible on the dragon story, along comes Naomi Novik. Her wonderful Temeraire is a dragon for the ages." --Terry Brooks "Enthralling reading--it's like Jane Austen playing Dungeons & Dragons with Eragon's Christopher Paolini." -- Time "A completely authentic tale, brimming with all the detail and richness one looks for . . . as well as the impossible wonder of gilded fantasy." --Entertainment Weekly (Editor's Choice, Grade: A) "Novik has accomplished something singular with her Temeraire series. . . . At its heart, it's a story about friendship that transcends not only time and class, but species." --NPR "[Naomi Novik] is soaring on the wings of a dragon." -- The New York Times "A thrilling fantasy . . . All hail Naomi Novik." -- The Washington Post Book World "An amazing performance . . . [I] was immediately hooked by the writing, the research and the sheer courage of the whole enterprise." -- Chicago Tribune "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 "Something new and quite wonderful . . . The Temeraire trilogy could well be this year's Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell." -- BookPage "A superbly written, character-driven series . . . What keeps one turning the pages is the urge to find out what happens next to Captain Laurence and Temeraire, characters who win one's heart from the beginning. Bravo!" -- Booklist (starred review)
