Publisher's summary

The next book in the thrilling New York Times best-selling series.

For years he has endured the endless trials and triumphs of a man whose skill and power could not be restrained. Battling ancient enemies, forging new alliances, and confronting the corruption within his own land, Gaius Octavian became a legendary man of war - and the rightful First Lord of Alera.

But now, the savage Vord are on the march, and Gaius must lead his legions to the Calderon Valley to stand against them - using all of his intelligence, ingenuity, and furycraft to save their world from eternal darkness.

I have enjoyed this series so much!!!

I didn't know what I was getting into when I took a free download of the first book. I have not been disappointed at all. I have to drive a lot and this book series never made me tired and even had me driving around the block a few times as I didn't want it to stop. Well done by author and reader. Thank you!!

A satisfying ending to a great series

A Jim Butcher classic. Interesting start followed by a very enrageing middle and capped with an extremely satisfying ending. Yes this series had its flaws but it will definetly go down as one of my favorites.

Loved the whole series

Kate Redding is a fantastic voice talent. She really brought the characters to life. I can only hope they’ll do a streaming series that’s half as good.

Keeps you hooked

I really, thoroughly, enjoyed this series. A little bummed that the ending wasn’t as epic as it may have been, but satisfying conclusion to an epic story nonetheless.
