If you loved Josette's relentless drive and the fast-paced, mission-focused action aboard the Mistral, you'll be swept up in His Majesty's Dragon. Captain Laurence and his dragon Temeraire are thrust into the center of the Napoleonic Wars, where every chapter brings a new tactical challenge, daring aerial maneuver, and race against time. The military objectives are clear and gripping, making for an adventure as thrilling as Bennis’s airship battles.
If the inventive airship warfare and meticulous technological detail of The Guns Above drew you in, Ninefox Gambit will astound you with its mind-bending calendrical weapons and the labyrinthine world of the Hexarchate. The book immerses you in a universe with strange rules, complex tactics, and a culture as deeply realized as Garnia’s, elevating military science fiction to a whole new level.
If you enjoyed the snappy banter and dry wit between Josette and her crew, Sorcerer to the Crown will delight you with its sparkling repartee and satirical edge. Zacharias and Prunella’s adventures are laced with clever humor, social commentary, and a lightness of touch that mirrors the comedic moments aboard the Mistral.
If Josette Dupre’s competence and fortitude made her an unforgettable protagonist for you, you’ll love Staff Sergeant Torin Kerr’s command in Valor's Choice. Torin leads her squad through harrowing battles and bureaucratic nonsense with resilience and intelligence, breaking barriers in a male-dominated military and navigating both combat and politics with a steady hand.
If you were hooked by the relentless pacing and explosive combat sequences in The Guns Above, The Light Brigade offers a barrage of action. Dietz’s journey through the war is marked by intense battles, rapid deployment scenes, and a plot that never slows down, echoing the adrenaline rush of Bennis’s dogfights and daring raids.
