General Analysis

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"His Majesty's Dragon" by Naomi Novik is set during the Napoleonic Wars but with a twist: dragons exist and are used in aerial combat. Captain Will Laurence of the British Navy captures a French ship and discovers a dragon egg. When the dragon hatches, it bonds with Laurence, forcing him to join the Aerial Corps.

Laurence and the dragon, Temeraire, undergo rigorous training and face prejudice as they learn to work together. The threat of Napoleon looms, and they must defend Britain from French aerial attacks. Themes of loyalty, duty, camaraderie, and the impact of war are explored as their bond deepens.
