Naomi Novik ended her acclaimed, beloved ninevolume Temeraire series last year with a stunning finale, League of Dragons. Fans missing their favorite series can now rejoice: Novik returns with an original Temeraire collection as unique as the world she has created, with each tale inspired by an accompanying piece of fan art.The Temeraire novels provide a window into an alternate nineteenth century populated with Novik s own richly human and unforgettably draconic characters as they adventure alongside wellknown historical figures. That tradition continues here. Readers will delight at appearances by fanfavorite characters from the series and historical figures like the famed explorer Matteo Ricci. In Planting Season, Novik shows us an early glimpse of American dragon John Wampanoag at Boston Harbor. Golden Age finds a dragon who believes he remembers being called Celeste hatch from a shipwrecktossed crate onto an island where he meets others of his kind. But other famous fictional characters are to be discovered here as well. Readers will certainly recognize a certain Miss Bennet (here Captain Bennet) and her suitor, Mr. Darcy, in Dragons and Decorum.Filled with the inventive worldbuilding, rich detail, sparkling wit, and deep emotion that readers have come to expect from Novik s work, Golden Age and Other Stories is a treasure at home on any Temerairelover s bookshelf.
