Princeps' Fury (Codex Alera Book 5)

In Jim Butcher's Codex Alera, Princeps Gaius Octavian, also known as Tavi of Calderon, solidifies a perilous alliance with the Canim, Alera's ancient adversaries. However, their journey to the Canim homelands reveals a terrifying truth: the Vord, a common enemy, have devastated the land.

Trapped with their former foes, the Alerans face a dire situation. Back in Alera, political infighting threatens stability as the nation rebuilds from previous conflicts.

A chilling message arrives from the south: the Vord have invaded Alera itself. For a millennium, Alera's people and their furies have stood strong, but the Vord's arrival signals a turning point; the future of Alera hangs precariously in the balance.
