What this book is about
The fourth Codex Alera novel finds Tavi leading a Legion after two years of guerrilla warfare against the Canim and navigating impossible political orders from back home. Jim Butcher's Roman-inspired fantasy series has been building toward a major reveal about Tavi's identity, and the fourth book accelerates that arc. Large-scale military fantasy with significant violence throughout. Good for fans of Roman history, military strategy, and political intrigue in epic fantasy.
