His Majesty's Dragon, Throne Of Jade, Black Powder War, Empire of Ivory and Victory of Eagles by Naomi Novik. Napoleonic war with dragons; for obvious reasons this is very cool and made cooler by how unlike Pern it is. I look forward to book six.

I wonder what Volly would make of Kangaroos?

Kangaroo is so much more difficult to say than cows.

(Especially with your mouth full.)

He'd give them a terrible nickname and get horribly tangled in the bush accidentally hopping after them!
