Naomi Novik has spun a long tale, finally winding it to a mostly fitting conclusion with this volume. League of Dragons is divided up into 4 sections, beginning in Russia with a defeated Napoleon retreating from Moscow, thanks in large part to the efforts of William Laurence and his dragon partner Temeraire in the previous volume of the series. Nonetheless, the situation is still dire. They know Napoleon will regroup and return - and events will place them in opposition once more.The danger of Novik's Napoleon is his genius for coming up with new strategies and tactics, and this is certainly true here. Aided and abetted by his own dragon, he's come up with a plan to win over dragons around the world under his banner, and it stands a good chance of succeeding. Yet he is not the only one capable of learning and innovation.Laurence and Temeraire have been the heroes of the hour, adopted into the Chinese Imperial family, condemned in disgrace as traitors, exiled as criminals, survived excruciating journeys, been heroes again and again, and have always done their duty as they saw it. This is the volume that takes that tempering in the fires and sees it put to good use. The knowledge they have gained, the experiences they have been through, the connections they have made, it all comes together as Russia joins England, China and Prussia to bring Napoleon's campaign of conquest to a final halt - while they still can.Novik throws in some twists and turns along the way. There's potential for more stories out of this alternate history fantasy she's crafted, but this is a decent stopping point. One of the better books in the series.In real life history, Napoleon ended up exiled to St. Helena, a remote island in the South Atlantic.
