Overview

En la tercera novela de la serie Temerario, best seller del New York Times, el Capitán Will Laurence y su dragón transportan una preciada carga mientras esquivan enemigos por todas partes. Tras su fatídica aventura en China, el Capitán Will Laurence de las Fuerzas Aéreas de Su Majestad y su extraordinario dragón, Temerario, son abordados por un misterioso emisario que trae nuevas órdenes urgentes de Gran Bretaña. Tres valiosos huevos de dragón han sido comprados al Imperio Otomano, y Laurence y Temerario deben desviarse hacia Estambul para acompañar la preciada carga hasta Inglaterra. Cada segundo cuenta si los huevos han de ser transportados a casa antes de eclosionar. Pero el desastre amenaza la misión a cada paso por las maquinaciones diabólicas de la dragona china Lien, que culpa a Temerario de la muerte de su amo y jura aliarse con Napoleón para vengarse. Entonces, enfrentados a una traición desgarradora en un sitio inesperado, Laurence, Temerario y su cuadrilla deben lanzar una atrevida ofensiva. Pero, ¿qué opciones tienen contra la inmensa e implacable armada de Napoleón?

After their fateful adventure in China, Captain Will Laurence of His Majesty’s Aerial Corps and his extraordinary dragon, Temeraire, are waylaid by a mysterious envoy bearing urgent new orders from Britain. Three valuable dragon eggs have been purchased from the Ottoman Empire, and Laurence and Temeraire must detour to Istanbul to escort the precious cargo back to England. Time is of the essence if the eggs are to be home before hatching. Yet disaster threatens the mission at every turn, thanks to the diabolical machinations of the Chinese dragon Lien, who blames Temeraire for her master’s death and vows to ally herself with Napoleon and take vengeance. Then, faced with shattering betrayal in an unexpected place, Laurence, Temeraire, and their squad must launch a daring offensive. But what chance do they have against the massed forces of Bonaparte’s implacable army?
