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.

“Every book that features Iskierka Making Decisions is a good time.
This book felt a return to form for me, with a great amount of focus on the dragons, new civilizations and their cultures being introduced, and plenty of action to go around. There are also some heavy costs paid, which really helped in the feeling of weight and reality to the book.
But most of all, I just love reading the interactions between dragons and the difference in the way they think vs how the humans around them do. Their values and priorities going against those of their humans is one of the most interesting parts of a book like this, and each example of it in this book was great fun.”
