Captain Will Laurence und sein Drache Temeraire werden ins ottomanische Imperium abkommandiert. Dort warten drei Dracheneier auf sie, die sie sicher nach Britannien bringen müssen - doch das bedeutet, sich erneut mit dem Drachenweibchen Lien anzulegen, das geschworen hat, sich blutig zu rächen...

Ein furchtloser Feuerreiter und sein Drache treten Napoleon entgegen: Die letzte Schlacht um die Freiheit beginnt! Der Russland-Feldzug war für Napoleons Armee vernichtend. Doch auch die Russen und ihre Verbündeten wurden stark geschwächt. Kapitän Will Laurence und sein Drache Temeraire verfolgen die Überreste der französischen Armee zurück nach Westen. Dennoch gelingt es Napoleon, unversehrt nach Paris zurückzukehren. Und es kommt noch Schlimmer für Temeraire, denn die Franzosen haben sein Ei gestohlen!

Nach einem Schiffsunglück hat Kapitän Will Lawrence alles verloren. Doch sein größter Verlust ist ihm nicht einmal bewusst. Denn durch den Unfall hat er keine Erinnerung mehr an seine Zeit als Feuerreiter oder an seinen Drachen Temeraire. Allein muss er sich den Intrigen und Machtkämpfen der mächtigen Familien Japans stellen. Währenddessen reist Temeraire ohne seinen Kapitän nach Moskau, um die Stadt gegen das größte Heer, das die Welt je gesehen hat, zu verteidigen. Im Schatten des Kremls werden sich der Kapitän und sein Drache wiedersehen - und es wird sich herausstellen, ob es tiefere Bande gibt als bloße Erinnerungen.

Kaum haben Captain Will Laurence und sein gewaltiger Drache Temeraire ihre erste Bewährungsprobe bestanden, da erscheint eine chinesische Delegation am britischen Königshof und fordert die Rückgabe Temeraires...

Captain Will Laurence und sein Drache Temeraire werden ins ottomanische Imperium abkommandiert. Dort warten drei Dracheneier auf sie, die sie sicher nach Britannien bringen müssen - doch das bedeutet, sich erneut mit dem Drachenweibchen Lien anzulegen, das geschworen hat, sich blutig zu rächen ...

Enter a school of magic unlike any you have ever encountered. There are no teachers, no holidays, friendships are purely strategic and the odds of survival are never equal. Once you’re inside, there are only two ways out: you graduate or you die. El Higgins is uniquely prepared for the school’s many dangers. She may be without allies, but she possesses a dark power strong enough to level mountains and wipe out untold millions - never mind easily destroy the countless monsters that prowl the school. Except, she might accidentally kill all the other students, too.

Shipwrecked and cast ashore in Japan with no memory of Temeraire or his own experiences as an English aviator, Laurence finds himself tangled in deadly political intrigues that threaten not only his own life but England’s already precarious position in the Far East. Age-old enmities and suspicions have turned the entire region into a powder keg ready to erupt at the slightest spark - a spark that Laurence and Temeraire may unwittingly provide, leaving Britain faced with new enemies just when they most desperately need allies instead. 

Former Aerial Corps captain Will Laurence and his faithful dragon, Temeraire, have been put out to pasture in Australia - and it seems their part in the war has ended just when they are needed most. The French have invaded Spain, forged an alliance with Africa’s powerful Tswana empire and brought revolution to Brazil. With Britain’s last desperate hope of defeating Napoleon in peril, the government that sidelined Laurence swiftly offers to reinstate him, convinced that he’s the best man to enter the fray and negotiate peace.

Convicted of treason and stripped of rank and standing, Temeraire and Lawrence are transported to the prison colony at New South Wales. With them travel three dragon eggs destined to be handed over to second-rate officers willing to accept so remote an assignment - including one former acquaintance, Captain Rankin, whose cruelty once cost a dragon its life. They arrive at a young Australian colony in turmoil after the overthrow of the military governor, William Bligh - formerly Captain Bligh, late of HMS Bounty. 

The fifth adventure of Captain William Laurence and his extraordinary fighting dragon, Temeraire, as they travel from the shores of Britain to China and Africa. Laurence and Temeraire have betrayed the British. They have foiled their attempts to inflict death upon the French dragons by sharing the cure they found in Africa with their enemy. But following their conscience has a price. Laurence feels he must return to face the consequences, and as soon as they land they are taken into custody.

Laurence and Temeraire made a daring journey across vast and inhospitable continents to bring home a rare Turkish dragon from the treacherous Ottoman Empire. Kazilik dragons are firebreathers, and Britain is in greater need of protection than ever, for while Laurence and Temeraire were away, an epidemic struck British shores and is killing off her greatest defence - her dragon air force is slowly dying. The dreadful truth must be kept from Napoleon at all costs.
