I thought HMD was terrific. I really enjoyed the Master & Commander writing style. Really though, how can you go wrong when you couple Napoleonic Wars with dragons??? :) I'm looking forward to reading the other books in the series.
Also, I've been keeping up with your posts, but don't see any way to comment on them anymore so that's why I haven't said anything. lol

Books two & three are also great. I didn't think book four was as good as the others, though it got better in the last third or so. Book five is good so far, though! I am super excited for the sixth book to come out as well. :D Hopefully around the same time I finish the fifth one, haha.
Oh! Haha, well, I have moved over to dreamwidth.org for my main journalling site, but I am still having them cross-post to LJ. :) But it annoys me having my comments in two places, so I moved all the comments over to Dreamwidth. I gave you access on an OpenID account, here. So if you wanted to comment with that account, you can just use that to log into DW. So basically, it logs you in via your LJ account using your same LJ account password and everything. Then you can just make it stay logged in on that and you can use it to comment anywhere there, or to see friends-locked entries and stuff ( ... )

I had heard that the fourth book wasn't quite as good and that they were falling into a familiar pattern and people were hoping the author would change things up a bit. I have the second book loaded in my Reader, but I have so many freaking books to read it's hard to decide on just one. :)
It's funny because this series has been on my radar forever, but finally got around to reading the first book because it was a monthly freebie last year for the Sony Reader. So hurray for Free because now I'll pay to buy the other ones.
I need to finish up some of these trilogies and things I've started. I usually read a whole series back to back, but this past year I've decided to jump around more.
