Reviews
Praise for Naomi Novik and her novels of Temeraire   "Novik's influences run the gamut from Jane Austen to Patrick O'Brian, with a side trip through Anne McCaffrey. Her books are completely involving and probably addictive, their central conceit explored in clever detail with a great deal of wit and historical insight."-- San Francisco Chronicle   "These are beautifully written novels: not only fresh, original, and fast-paced, but full of wonderful characters with real heart."--Peter Jackson   "A gripping adventure full of rich detail and the impossible wonder of gilded fantasy."-- Entertainment Weekly   "A new writer is soaring on the wings of a dragon."-- The New York Times   "[This is] a glorious series whose future status as a genre classic is now assured."--SF Reviews, Praise for Naomi Novik and her novels of Temeraire   "Novik's influences run the gamut from Jane Austen to Patrick O'Brian, with a side trip through Anne McCaffrey.

Synopsis
Naomi Novik's beloved series returns, with Captain Will Laurence and his fighting dragon Temeraire once again taking to the air against the broadsides of Napoleon's forces and the friendly--and sometimes not-so-friendly--fire of British soldiers and politicians who continue to suspect them of divided loyalties, if not outright treason.    For Laurence and Temeraire, put out to pasture in Australia, it seems their part in the war has come to an end just when they are needed most. But perhaps they are no longer alone in this opinion. Newly allied with the powerful African empire of the Tswana, the French have occupied Spain and brought revolution and bloodshed to Brazil, threatening Britain's last desperate hope to defeat Napoleon.   And now the government that sidelined them has decided they have the best chance at negotiating a peace with the angry Tswana, who have besieged the Portuguese royal family in Rio--and thus offer to reinstate Laurence to his former rank and seniority as a captain in the Aerial Corps. Temeraire is delighted by this sudden reversal of fortune, but Laurence is by no means sanguine, knowing from experience that personal honor and duty to one's country do not always run on parallel tracks.   Nonetheless, the pair embark for Brazil, only to meet with a string of unmitigated disasters that force them to make an unexpected landing in the hostile territory of the Incan empire, where they face new unanticipated dangers.   Now with the success of the mission balanced on a razor's edge, and failure looking more likely by the minute, the unexpected arrival of an old enemy will tip the scales toward ruin. Yet even in the midst of disaster, opportunity may lurk--for one bold enough to grasp it., The best-known work by famed American writer Stephen Crane, "The Red Badge of Courage" is a compelling exploration of human emotion in the midst of battle. The book is revered for its pioneering style, and it explores themes of maturation, cowardice, and nature's cruelty. One of the most innovative writers of his generation, Crane's other notable works include "The Open Boat," "The Blue Hotel," "The Brides Comes to Yellow Sky," and "The Upturned Face." All of these stories are now available in one chic and affordable edition as part of the Word Cloud Classics series from Canterbury Classics. This edition includes: - "The Red Badge of Courage"- "The Open Boat"- "The Blue Hotel"- "The Bride Comes to Yellow Sky"- "The Upturned Face"

    Prompt shipping. Packaged well. Good communication. Great customer service. Item arrived with manufacturing defect. Seller replaced item. Also, eBay issued refund and considered order closed. Replacement also had manufacturing defect. I can't access replacement order in the system to obtain defective item return shipping label. Seller advised me to keep item, or donate to library. I've seen this type of quality control issue on a few other, modern vinyl reissues.

    Absolutely superb buying experience. The book was shipped quickly and delivered on time. Shipping was tracked for added security. The seller packaged the book very carefully so it wouldn't get damaged. This is something I appreciate a lot so my thanks to him. Condition of the book was exactly as advertised that is to say pristine condition. I couldn't be more satisfied hence my 5/5 positive feedback to the seller.
