Temeraire is a series of alternate history/fantasy books written by Naomi Novik. They are also part of the Age Of Sail fandom.
The books are set during an alternate version of the Napoleonic wars, where dragons are used in combat. Each novel follows the adventures of Captain Laurence and his dragon friend, Temeraire, as they fight and travel around the world. Six books have been published to date: His Majesty's Dragon (Temeraire in the U.K.), Throne of Jade, Black Powder War, Empire of Ivory, Victory of Eagles, and Tongues of Serpents.[1]
