Ah, yes. You mean the "In Favour with their Stars" story in the Unfettered collection, I think.

Haven't read that one yet, though I might have $3 for the eBook. I hadn't expected more than a whimsical Temeraire dream about flying around in space. So I'm surprised by your description.

"She didn't go in to the particulars of how dragons did (or did not) reshape history extensively by their presence."

I can understand that. I suspect that is why she ended the series where she did, historical points were about to start diverting greatly and without a team of historians, she'd would be spending far more time figuring out how each dragon shaped ripple changed the future and the series isn't popular enough to justify spending that much time on it.

"it actually became hugely maladaptive to be a heavyweight or even middleweight dragon, as they were expensive to feed and mechanical work was more easily accomplished by machines."

That was my outlook as well, though I suspect Novik was a bit optimistic/kind in her view. I can imagine the matter becoming quite nasty with rationing and taxes being levied on dragons as well as population control.

And I could also see anti-mechanical racialists on the dragons side who destroy any machines that could replace them. We've seen how taxi drivers panicked when Uber came out. How are dragons going to feel when the only things they can do is being replaced by machines. Dragons will feel the same about machines in the 1900's as humans do about about robots today.

And what happens when dragons start rioting?
