La guerra de la polvora (Black Powder War) (Temerario / Temeraire) (Spanish Edition)

After their fateful adventure in China, Capt. Will and his extraordinary dragon, Temeraire, are waylaid by a mysterious envoy bearing urgent new orders from Britain. Three valuable dragon eggs have been purchased from the Ottoman Empire, and Laurence and Temeraire must detour to Istanbul to escort the precious cargo back to England. Time is of the essence if the eggs are to be borne home before hatching. Yet disaster threatens the mission at every turn thanks to the diabolical machinations of the Chinese dragon Lien, who blames Temeraire for her master's death and vows to ally herself with Napoleon and take vengeance. Then, faced with shattering betrayal in an unexpected place, Laurence, Temeraire, and their squad must launch a daring offensive. But what chance do they have against the massed forces of Bonaparte's implacable army?

Spanish Description: Una inolvidable aventura marina hasta tierras del Lejano Oriente.
El capitan Will Laurence sello su destino al capturar de una fragata francesa el huevo de dragon imperial del que naceria Temerario. Juntos demostraron su valor combatiendo contra las fuerzas invasoras de Napoleon Bonaparte. Ahora China ha descubierto que el dragon esta en manos britanicas y ha enviado a unos emisarios para recuperar al fantastico animal. Cuando Laurence se niegue a entregarlo, su desafio solo tendra dos salidas: la horca o acompanar a Temerario hasta el Lejano Oriente. Comienza entonces un largo viaje sembrado de trampas, peligros e intrigas que solo reforzaran la magnifica amistad que hay entre Will y Temerario.
