    Summary

    His dragon taken from him, William Laurence leaves the service with little more than a bitter grudge against aviators and his Majesty's government. Slave ships and traders learn to fear his black flag; port towns on the African coast and Portuguese Brazil tremble when they hear rumors of his presence. Yet, inexplicably, he begins to set his target on dragon transports-and one moonless night the Allegiance, bound for China, finds itself under raid.

    Summary

    There was a dependability to a sourdough starter’s schedule that soothed some long-forgotten part of his psyche. The first nearly-forty years of his life had been dictated to him: Harrow, and then basic training, and then Plymouth, and then he’d been on various ships, and even when he’d transferred out of the bridge and onto the flightdeck, still he had known structure. His time under house arrest, too, had been highly structured, even if it hadn’t lasted terribly long. It was true that the last three years of his time in the service had been a little…slapdash, but the rigors and requirements of the field had formed their own kind of routine, and one he was more than familiar with.

    Summary

    Had Laurence known how much dancing there was to the life of a spy, he might have thought about it twice.
