if you like Eragon, Temeraire will be better XD
"he series of books revolves around the primary characters Temeraire and Captain William Laurence. Captain Laurence is a member of the British Royal Navy, serving in combat against Napoleon's navy when he recovers a dragon egg unlike any other known to the British.
The egg soon hatches, and Temeraire (a Chinese dragon), is born. Temeraire immediately imprints upon Laurence, akin to a hatchling imprinting upon its parent. This forces a life change for the sailor, drawing him from the prestigious Royal Navy to the less desirable Royal Aerial Corps.
The subsequent novels in the original trilogy follow the adventures of Laurence and Temeraire as they deal with the forces of Napoleon Bonaparte as well as Temeraire's heritage and the diplomatic fallout of his adoption by the British captain.
The fourth novel deals with Laurence and Temeraire seeking a cure for a draconic illness, introduced by a North American dragon, spreading throughout the British dragons while Napoleon seeks to press his advantage."
