Our view
Characters and action come first in “Victory of Eagles”, a strong fifth novel of the “Temeraire” series. Laurence and his dragon face the consequences of the choice they made in the previous book, and Temeraire grows a great deal while the other dragons gain personalities of their own. Some readers find Laurence’s situation rather bleak to watch, though the dragon’s innocence lightens it. Nine volumes make up the whole story.
