He did! I'd had my eye on the (very expensive) hardcover, but then realized a paperback edition came out last year. Haven't had the time to read it yet, but soon.

I've been in Switzerland for the past few years. Been dealing with some chronic health problems, but for all that, not bad!

Thanks! It's from the cover art to the first Temeraire novel -- I didn't make it, but the maker should be credited in my icon comments.
