This book took about 30-40 pages to get into, but once I did I couldn't put it down. It was a little hard to get used to since it's told from the perspective of a 5 year-old child. It is definitely a book that will make you think about things and one you won't forget for a long time.

Historical or fantasy … can't choose? Why not have both!!! What would you get if you crossed Sharpe with the Hobbit? Well, pretty much this novel. Temeraire is a wonderful debut from Naomi Novik. Naval captain Will Laurence, when boarding a French ship that his men have taken, finds a dragon egg being transported. Dragons when hatched become bound to their new owners when the harness is put on them and from that point dragon and owner become virtually inseparable. When the egg is finally opened the newborn dragon immediately takes to Will. This signifies the end of Will’s naval career and the beginning of a new one as an aviator. The Aerial Corps (dragons and riders) are not treated well in the society of the day. Novik knows her history; this novel breathes authenticity. Set in the times of the Napoleonic wars, Temeraire is an alternate history where dragons are used in addition to the ships in battle. Despite this being a world where dragons roam the skies events do not differ greatly from our own reality. Trafalgar still happens and Napoleon still rules much of Europe. I was really impressed with the subtle way in which Novik blended the concept, so that it soon became very easy to accept that not only did dragons exist, but they featured as main combatants in the Napoleonic Wars. Novik works hard to build a developed canon of dragon lore, revealing their place in history and how they and those who fly them fit into both military and civilian society without disturbing the plot with huge chunks of background information. The dragons are depicted in realistic detail; Novik invents different breeds with different characteristics, temperaments and abilities. Although this book may appear to be about a partially-altered history, it's actually far more of a story about a man and his dragon learning about each other. This is not just about battles and fighting, it's a book about character and growth. Will Laurence is an engaging character and his partnership with Temeraire is well drawn. I enjoyed the book very much, particularly in Will's change of circumstance from sea captain to dragon handler, and in his dealings with Temeraire and the other dragons and their handlers. There's a modicum of romance, and although the focus is on the dragons and action, there's enough of a sense of a wider world. I'm definitely going to follow the later instalments with interest. This is alternative universe fiction at its best; Novik takes an unusual combination and makes it work surprisingly well. An absolute gem of a novel, Temeraire, the first of six tales, is a compulsive read, full of action, adventure, dragons and great readable fantasy. It is rousing and exciting and there are genuine outrageous emotional moments. This book is highly recommended if you can stand reading a book in one sitting, because you won't want to stop. I believe Temeraire is to be made into a blockbuster movie, produced by Peter Jackson. Check it out now - before everyone finds out about it.

So it's the fourth one in a series I guess and I think it would have been less confusing if I had read the earlier ones because it took effort to figure out who was who, and who was a vampire and who wasn't, etc. Also, the story is mostly about the characters and the serial killer plot is very much in the background. The writing style is unique and I can't quite explain it but it was a little refreshing and a little confusing all at the same time. I got this book at my friend's wedding (the books were part of the centerpeices and we got to take them home) so the real question is would I read another one? A: Probably, especially if it was sitting at my house.

Hubo una época en la que el teatro del absurdo me encantaba y esta obra de teatro habría sido de mis lecturas favoritas. Ahora me aburre y me impacienta. Todos cambiamos.

This book was great. I love it. It was real boring at first, but then I realized the whole point of it. At least what I think is the point. It just shows the hypocrisy of society at times. From Christian slave owners to the want of money. It make take a bit for some people to realize, like me, but once you do you love it. I wish that I read the full version though.

This book seems at first to be a detective novel. The story begins in a London suburb at the turn of the twentieth century, where an undercover policeman and an anarchist poet debate the merits of order and anarchy. Before the night is through, the policeman, Gabriel Syme, has almost by accident infiltrated the anarchist power structure. The events which follow are surreal and genuinely creepy, while at the same time their wild improbability - together with the author's use of witticism - adds humor. This series of dark yet comical events ends with Syme pursuing the anarchist leader to the site where his hot-air balloon has crashed. There Syme finds something he has not expected, and from this point the story takes a quick theological turn. Though this section is brief, it's also heavy with meaning and symbol. The novel ends with Syme's return to the normal world, where he finds that nothing has changed except his awareness. Mystery, fear, humor, theology - this small book has some of everything, and is well worth reading.

I loved the way this book showed the importance of the people in the community. The beginning said that the old people weren't 'important', and by the end, everyone in the community (the old, the young, the stay-at-home moms, the away-at-work dads) had taken a place of importance. I thought the characters were well-written, the story was told in an exciting way, and insight was given into another culture and a very different way of life. I love being a homeschooling mom -- I never would have read this if I wasn't.

Bu, tadı olduğu kadar eşsiz ve zarif nesirlere sahip kitaplardan biridir. Açılış cezası tereyağı rom sosunda boğulmuş sıcak çikolatalı kek gibi tadı var. Ve böyle zengin bir şekerleme gibi, sizi daha sonra hastalamaya başlar ...
