Verdict: Temeraire is lovely!
Reasons for reading it: I've been reading interesting discussions about it on LJ, and wanted to join in.buymeaclue, was it you who proposed a theory about an allegory between the relationship of men to dragons in the Temeraire books, and the relationship of men to women in the real world?
How it came into my hands:cartesiandaemon very kindly brought it to Holland to lend to me. It was just the thing to occupy the really boring journey back to Sweden.
( detailed review )
But yay, reading that has just made me grin excessively.
