Victory of Eagles (Temeraire, #5)

This book finally gives us more of Temeraire's own perspectives on life and the world, and showcases a strong bout of character development that had been previously somewhat slower to evolve. Likewise with Laurence, who must finally confront the inherent conflict between his inner morality and the damning ethics of his country. At the same time, there are deeper moral and ethical questions at work alongside a rather thrilling series of battles. All backed by the repugnance of the British Lords and commanders. Even in those moments where I became a little annoyed with the story, I found myself quickly turned around by strong plot choices and a balance of action and consequence.

як будь-яка затягнена серія, ця теж вироджується в нудотну жувальну гумку... але принаймні п'ятий том додає якоїсь динаміки, є рух. не певен, чи хочу продовжувать читати серію: набридло.
