Journal Entry 1 by cathepsut from Metzingen, Baden-Württemberg Germany on Sunday, December 6, 2009
This was fun. Set in an alternate universe during the Napoleonic wars, the British and the French not only fight each other with their powerful Navies, but also with aerial combat -- the captains not flying in planes, but riding on dragons. Well written, it reads a bit like a mix of Patrick O'Brien and Anne McCaffrey. This one is the first of the series. I almost bought the next one, "Throne of Jade", in Bangkok on Saturday, but then decided against it. I still have plenty to read with me and didn't want to add extra weight. Now I think I should have. Amazon, I guess...
