Voyage of the Basilisk, by Marie Brennan. Memoirs of Lady Trent #3. Isabella is now sailing the world to see more types of dragons in person, and she gets involved in complications arising from international politics. This is the book where it becomes obvious why the author has chosen to create a whole new world that just happens to have its societies based on real world Victorian societies instead of using our own world, because for this book, the land based on Mexico is just north of a great sea that has a land based on East Asia at its south and a lot of Polynesian etc. islands in between. They spend a great deal of time shipwrecked on a land very like Hawai'i, and she has thrilling adventures there.
