Throne of Jade (Temeraire, Book 2)

When Britain intercepted a French ship and its precious cargoâ€“an unhatched dragonâ€™s eggâ€“Capt. Will Laurence of HMS Reliant unexpectedly became master and commander of the noble dragon he named Temeraire. As new recruits in Britainâ€™s Aerial Corps, man and dragon soon proved their mettle in daring combat against Bonaparteâ€™s invading forces.

Now China has discovered that its rare gift, intended for Napoleon, has fallen into British handsâ€“and an angry Chinese delegation vows to reclaim the remarkable beast. But Laurence refuses to cooperate. Facing the gallows for his defiance, Laurence has no choice but to accompany Temeraire back to the Far Eastâ€“a long voyage fraught with peril, intrigue, and the untold terrors of the deep. Yet once the pair reaches the court of the Chinese emperor, even more shocking discoveries and darker dangers await.
