Voyage of the Basilisk: A Memoir by Lady Trent (The Lady Trent Memoirs, 3)

The thrilling adventure of Lady Trent continues in Marie Brennans Voyage of the Basilisk . . . Devoted readers of Lady Trents earlier memoirs A Natural History of Dragons and The Tropic of Serpents may believe themselves already acquainted with the particulars of her historic voyage aboard the Royal Survey Ship Basilisk but the true story of that illuminating harrowing and scandalous journey has never been revealeduntil now. Six years after her perilous exploits in Eriga Isabella embarks on her most ambitious expedition yet: a two-year trip around the world to study all manner of dragons in every place they might be found. From feathered serpents sunning themselves in the ruins of a fallen civilization to the mighty sea serpents of the tropics these creatures are a source of both endless fascination and frequent peril. Accompanying her is not only her young son Jake but a chivalrous foreign archaeologist whose interests converge with Isabellas in ways both professional and personal. Science is of course the primary objective of the voyage but Isabellas life is rarely so simple. She must cope with storms shipwrecks intrigue and warfare even as she makes a discovery that offers a revolutionary new insight into the ancient history of dragons. The Lady Trent Memoirs 1.
