Fifth Temeraire novel, in which many characters get to deal with the consequences of their actions. Which is probably why I liked it better than the last couple, even though I still find Lawrence to be stiff and dull (in this series I find it easier to relate to the dragons than the humans).
At the end of the Empire of Ivory, Temeraire and Laurence became traitors to England. Now, they are paying for it; Temeraire has been confined to the breeding grounds in Wales and is bored while Laurence is a prisoner aboard the warship Goliath.
