His Majesty's Dragon by Naomi Novik

Temeraire #1
This was difficult for me to get into. It was very slow and I felt the characters were pretty bland. I felt like it was a lot of building for not much to happen and for something that is a simple world. This could all be chalked up to a first in a sizable fantasy series. I will continue to see where it goes and if it gets better. The concepts are interesting.
If you are really into history and alternate aspects histories then this will probably pull you in better than it did for me right from the start of series.
