Victory of Eagles, van Naomi Novik:
"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.... ".
Is eigenlijk het zoveelste deel in een serie maar volgens mij maakt dat niet veel uit. Als 't me bevalt koop ik de andere delen ook wel
En de andere 2 zijn van dezelfde auteur, Gordon Dahlquist.
The glass books of the dream eaters:
"A spy, a killer, an imposter, and three extraordinary heroes are featured in one unique novel. In The Glass Books of the Dream Eaters ...three most-unlikely but nevertheless extraordinary heroes become inadvertently involved in the diabolical machinations of a cabal bent upon enslaving thousands through a devilish 'process': Miss Temple is a feisty young woman with corkscrew curls who wishes only to learn why her fiance Roger broke off their engagement ...Cardinal Chang was asked to kill a man, but finding his quarry already dead he is determined to learn who beat him to it and why ...And Dr Svenson is chaperone to a dissolute Prince who has become involved with some most unsavoury individuals ...An adventure like no other, in a mysterious city few have travelled to, featuring a heroine and two heroes you will never ever forget."The dark volume:
"With old loyalties tested by new and unlikely alliances, Miss Temple, Doctor Svenson, and Cardinal Chang must call on every reserve of courage to face a new and desperate struggle – after all, the integrity of their very minds is at risk. From palace intrigue and a city in turmoil to wolf-haunted mountains, underground tunnels and a suspicious hidden factory, they must overcome war and heartache to battle old enemies and a host of new villains, all hoping to seize for themselves the power of the blue glass books. Now one glass book in particular drives them all, its deadly contents the key to controlling the secrets of the blue glass, or destroying it forever. "Heb net lekker al even gelezen en ga morgen weer verder
