Dragons exist and they link up with their ‘Captain’ in a life-long partnership.

Indeed they do apparently

... in China they’re seen as honoured citizens.

Quite so and especially this year.

In your Twitter feed, Martin you ask "Not many dragon lovers out there?" ... well I would take issue with the premise of the question as anyone married to someone born in the following years would have agreed, at least until they discovered the dreadful truth

I'm nearly at the end of book 4 after picking up Book 1 on kindle (for Android) just after new years, loving the series!

We are a small family business using a PO Box number for mail delivery.
The Post office have just invoced us at £200 fee for the next year. Last year it was about £127.
How can they justifu nearly a 60% increase?

Only just found this thread but I love the Temeraire series and Naomi Novik's writing (although she does seem to like semi-colons more than most). Have bought a number of the volumes as signed first editions. Peter Jackson bought the film rights some years ago although latest suggestions are that the works will be high production value mini-series through HBO or similar, rather than feature films. Something of a disappointment but doubt that much will happen until The Hobbit has been completed anyway..
