Jim Butcher is a superb writer and the Codex Alera series is well up there with the fabulous Dresden Files; full of well rounded, engaging, amusing characters who 'live' in this world of exciting peril drawn superbly in a brilliantly thought through plot. Each book is a great story on it's own, but everything hangs together to make a fantastic entirity. Jim Butcher does it again - with a perfect blend of wry, easy humour, thrilling action, and rich poinient relationships. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this series for a second time.
Princeps' Fury is the 5th book in the Codex of Alera series, it follows the adventures of several main characters as they fight to defend Alera. I strongly recommend that you read the series from the beginning. Fantastic characters with stunning powers, all set in truly visualised lands with distinct peoples. It has been likened to Lord of the Rings and I see the why, although the one enemy is so alien that it could be sci-fi. Jim Butcher writing is a joy to read and I cannot put it down, highly recommended to anyone who likes Fantasy / Sci-fi genres or just a good battle!
