Review "Jade Empire" by Naomi Novik

"Jade Empire" is the second book in Ms. Novik's "Temariare" series.

It continues the story of the dragon Temariare and his British pilot Laurance in the world of Napoleonic Europe. As Temeraire has discovered that he is a rare Chinese dragon, he journeys back to China. This book covers the long journey from England to China and the adventures of discovering Temeraire's origins.

Ms. Novik has again done an excellent job blending the world of Napoleonic Europe and the idea of dragons.

I highly recommend this series - it is entertaining and original.
