I am tearing through Naomi Novik's Temeraire series at top speed. I gobbled up the first three books compulsively, just downloaded the fourth (Empire of Ivory), and got stuck a few chapters in. Is this the beginning of an inevitable decline as the series wends its way on, or just a blip?

Unfortunately, probably the former. Although I thought the decline started a little earlier, and I stopped reading after Empire of Ivory. (I think; they've started to blur in my memory.) It's a shame, as I usually love her writing and have read pretty much everything she's ever put out.

Oh well. I had been warned previously that the books went downhill.

Wait, so this means Naomi Novik has written other books besides the Temeraire series? INTERESTING!

Oh, no-- not published books, just her fanfiction! I don't think she has any other pro writing other than Temeraire.
