Throne of Jade Audiobook

" While not quite as good as the first book in the series this was a pretty entertaining listen. Not as much action but more intrigue and diplomacy. Simon Vance, as always, did a wonderful job with the narration. "

" Love this series. It's amazing how the idea of having dragons used for the arial combat during the Napoleon Wars not only works well, but is really good reading. It does help that the dragons are such lovable characters. "

" A good dragon science fiction series. Incorporating the English - French war, with dragons as weapons. "

" It was not as good as His Majesty's Dragon. Too much politics. Too long to set the scene. It did not get interesting until, section 3, the last part of the book. The Chinese Dragon society and setting were too little too late. The "whodunit" part of the book fell flat. The chance for recapturing the reader was lost when the author skimmed over Temeraire's first case of "puppy" er..dragon love. If the next book is not vastly better I will not continue with this series. I can not recommend this book. The first book, His Majesty's Dragon, was wonderful and I highly recommend it. This was disappointing. "

" A nice continuation of a pleasurable and involving series. I particularly liked seeing Temeraire grow intellectually and watching him grapple with sociopolitical issues such as the role of dragons in society. "

" Not as good as the first book of the series, but a perfectly serviceable read. "

" Not quite as fun as the first one, but definitely left me wanting to read the third. "

" So boring, and the Chinese in the novel are so surreal. Never managed to finish even half of it. "

" Second in the Temeraire series and another good read. "

" It was short and fast. The story flowed very easily. "

" While not quite as action packed as the first novel, this one was more character driven. I really liked the development of Temeraire, and only wish that Laurence would show a little stinking adaptability! At least pride should make him try to keep up with his friend's educational achievements. "

" Loved this continuation of the Temeraire series. "

" I liked His Majesty's Dragon better, but Throne of Jade continues the story nicely. I recommend it. "

" a little less interesting than the first and lots of lying or not telling the whole truth "

" Enjoyed it, but not as much as the first book. "

" Not as good as the first in the series but still a great book. "

" Another great dragon book... more fascinating, yet nail biting than the last one "

" Just as good as the first book. It is hard not to love Temeraire! These books are quick reads that let you get caught up in a whole different world - I love it! "

" The second book of the Temeraire series takes our Draconian (dragonian?) protagonist on a trip to China ... Fun times are not had by all. "

" How does she do it? What a genius. "

" The 2nd Temeraire book continues the saga with a long trip to China. Still a page turner like the first book. There was one F-word surprisingly, other than that it was appropriate for all ages. "

" I liked this better than the first one, mainly because of the awkwardness of diplomacy -- especially when you add dragons. But I'm not in a reviewing mood right now. I'll just say that I wanted to give it 3.5 stars. The series is working its way up there. "

" Another excellent alternate history following on from His Majesty's Dragon. "
