In the first novel of the New York Times bestselling Temeraire series, a rare bond is formed between a young man and a dragon, and together they must battle in the Napoleonic Wars.
“A terrifically entertaining fantasy novel.”—Stephen King
Aerial combat brings a thrilling new dimension to the Napoleonic Wars as valiant warriors rise to Britain’s defense by taking to the skies—not aboard aircraft but atop the mighty backs of fighting dragons. When HMS Reliant captures a French frigate and seizes its precious cargo, an unhatched dragon egg, fate sweeps Capt. Will Laurence from his seafaring life into an uncertain future—and an unexpected kinship with a most extraordinary creature. Thrust into the rarified world of the Aerial Corps as master of the dragon Temeraire, he will face a crash course in the daring tactics of airborne battle. For as France’s own dragon-borne forces rally to breach British soil in Bonaparte’s boldest gambit, Laurence and Temeraire must soar into their own baptism of fire.
“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

Books that do what Fourth Wing thought it was doing, but don’t suck
Books that do what Fourth Wing thought it was doing but don’t suck 😃 This is an older video I’m reposting bc it randomly started gaining traction again the last few days. Can you tell I’ve gotten a lot more…shall we say *deliberate* in how i feel about Fourth Wing? 😂 A lot of the original marketing of FW from what i remember (and why i bought it) was as a dragon riding military college brutal story, NOT as a from blood and ash style romance book, which is why i originally made this video of hey here are better examples of what this book was apparently trying to do and did very very poorly. I recorded this while i was in an airport waiting for my flight like 12 hours after i’d finished FW shortly after it released and was like lowkey trying yo gaslight myself that it wasn’t as awful as it actually was 💀 #booktok #fourthwing #rebeccayarros #dragonbooks #fantasybooks #adeadlyeducation #naominovik #eragon #christopherpaolini #hismajestysdragon #thepoppywar #rfkuang #booktoker #bookrecs #emmaskiesreads
