Captain's Fury

In the gripping fourth installment of Jim Butcher's acclaimed Codex Alera series, 'Captain's Fury' plunges Tavi of Calderon, now Captain of the First Aleran Legion, into an impossible strategic quandary. After two grueling years of warfare against the invading Canim, Tavi uncovers a terrifying truth: a far more ancient and destructive force drove the savage Canim from their homeland, making them refugees rather than mere invaders. His desperate plea for an alliance with the Canim against this looming, existential threat falls on deaf ears within the Aleran Senate, particularly with the newly appointed military commander, who sees only an opportunity to eradicate the Canim and their slave allies once and for all. Tavi is forced to defy centuries of animosity, political machinations, and even direct orders. He must forge an unprecedented alliance and lead his legion in a rebellion against the very laws he swore to uphold, risking everything to unite former enemies against a peril that threatens to consume all life on Alera, or face utter annihilation.
