His Majesty's Dragon (Temeraire #1)
by Naomi Novik
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.

Throne of Jade (Temeraire #2)
by Naomi Novik
When Britain intercepted a French ship and its precious cargo–an
unhatched dragon’s egg–Capt. Will Laurence of HMS Reliant unexpectedly became
master and commander of the noble dragon he named Temeraire. As new recruits in
Britain’s Aerial Corps, man and dragon soon proved their mettle in daring
combat against Bonaparte’s invading forces.
Now China has discovered that its rare gift, intended for
Napoleon, has fallen into British hands–and an angry Chinese delegation vows to
reclaim the remarkable beast. But Laurence refuses to cooperate. Facing the
gallows for his defiance, Laurence has no choice but to accompany Temeraire
back to the Far East–a long voyage fraught with peril, intrigue, and the untold
terrors of the deep. Yet once the pair reaches the court of the Chinese
emperor, even more shocking discoveries and darker dangers await.

Black Powder War (Temeraire #3)
by Naomi Novik
“A splendid series.” – Anne McCaffrey
“Naomi Novik has done for the Napoleonic Wars what Anne McCaffrey
did for science fiction: constructed an alternate reality in which dragons are
real in a saga that is impressively original, fully developed, and peopled with
characters you care about.”
–David Weber, author of the Honor Harrington series
After their fateful adventure in China, Capt. Will Laurence of His
Majesty’s Aerial Corps and his extraordinary dragon, Temeraire, are waylaid by
a mysterious envoy bearing urgent new orders from Britain. Three valuable
dragon eggs have been purchased from the Ottoman Empire, and Laurence and
Temeraire must detour to Istanbul to escort the precious cargo back to England.
Time is of the essence if the eggs are to be borne home before hatching.
Yet disaster threatens the mission at every turn–thanks to the
diabolical machinations of the Chinese dragon Lien, who blames Temeraire for
her master’s death and vows to ally herself with Napoleon and take vengeance.
Then, faced with shattering betrayal in an unexpected place, Laurence,
Temeraire, and their squad must launch a daring offensive. But what chance do
they have against the massed forces of Bonaparte’s implacable army?

Empire of Ivory (Temeraire #4)
by Naomi Novik
“A new writer is soaring on
the wings of a dragon.” – The New York Times
“Enthralling reading–it’s
like Jane Austen playing Dungeons & Dragons with Eragon’s Christopher
Paolini.” – Time, on His Majesty’s Dragon
Tragedy has struck His Majesty’s Aerial Corps, whose magnificent
fleet of fighting dragons and their human captains valiantly defend England’s
shores against the encroaching armies of Napoleon Bonaparte. An epidemic of
unknown origin and no known cure is decimating the noble dragons’ ranks–forcing
the hopelessly stricken into quarantine. Now only Temeraire and a pack of newly
recruited dragons remain uninfected–and stand as the only means of an airborne
defense against France’s ever bolder sorties.
Bonaparte’s dragons are already harrowing Britain’s ships at sea.
Only one recourse remains: Temeraire and his captain, Will Laurence, must take
wing to Africa, whose shores may hold the cure to the mysterious and deadly
contagion. On this mission there is no time to waste, and no telling what lies
in store beyond the horizon or for those left behind to wait, hope, and hold
the line.

Victory of Eagles (Temeraire #5)
by Naomi Novik
Naomi Novik's triumphant debut, His Majesty's Dragon, introduced a
dynamic new pair of heroes to the annals of fantasy fiction: the noble fighting
dragon Temeraire and his master and commander, Capt. Will Laurence. Now in the
latest novel, they soar to new heights of breathtaking action and brilliant
imagination.
It is a grim time for the dragon Temeraire. On the heels of his
mission to Africa, seeking the cure for a deadly contagion, he has been removed
from military service - and his captain, Will Laurence, has been condemned to
death for treason. For Britain, conditions are grimmer still: Napoleon's
resurgent forces have breached the Channel and successfully invaded English
soil. Napoleon's prime objective: the occupation of London.
Separated by their own government and threatened at every turn by
Napoleon's forces, Laurence and Temeraire must struggle to find each other amid
the turmoil of war and to aid the resistance against the invasion before
Napoleon's foothold on England's shores can become a stranglehold.
If only they can be reunited, master and dragon might rally
Britain's scattered forces and take the fight to the enemy as never before -
for king and country, and for their own liberty. But can the French aggressors
be well and truly routed, or will a treacherous alliance deliver Britain into
the hands of her would-be conquerors?

Tongues of Serpents (Temeraire #6)
by Naomi Novik
A dazzling blend of military history, high-flying fantasy, and
edge-of-your-seat adventure, Naomi Novik’s Temeraire novels, set in an
alternate Napoleonic era in which intelligent dragons have been harnessed as
weapons of war, are more than just perennial bestsellers—they are a worldwide
phenomenon. Now, in Tongues of Serpents, Naomi Novik is back, along with the
dragon Temeraire and his rider and friend, Capt. Will Laurence.
Convicted of treason despite their heroic defense against
Napoleon’s invasion of England, Temeraire and Laurence—stripped of rank and
standing—have been transported to the prison colony at New South Wales in
distant Australia, where, it is hoped, they cannot further corrupt the British
Aerial Corps with their dangerous notions of liberty for dragons. Temeraire and
Laurence carry with them three dragon eggs intended to help establish a covert
in the colony and destined to be handed over to such second-rate, undesirable
officers as have been willing to accept so remote an assignment—including one
former acquaintance, Captain Rankin, whose cruelty once cost a dragon its life.
Nor is this the greatest difficulty that confronts the exiled
dragon and rider: Instead of leaving behind all the political entanglements and
corruptions of the war, Laurence and Temeraire have instead sailed into a
hornet’s nest of fresh complications. For the colony at New South Wales has
been thrown into turmoil after the overthrow of the military governor, one
William Bligh—better known as Captain Bligh, late of HMS Bounty. Bligh wastes
no time in attempting to enlist Temeraire and Laurence to restore him to
office, while the upstart masters of the colony are equally determined that the
new arrivals should not upset a balance of power precariously tipped in their
favor.
Eager to escape this political quagmire, Laurence and Temeraire
take on a mission to find a way through the forbidding Blue Mountains and into
the interior of Australia. But when one of the dragon eggs is stolen from
Temeraire, the surveying expedition becomes a desperate race to recover it in
time—a race that leads to a shocking discovery and a dangerous new obstacle in
the global war between Britain and Napoleon.
