Scoot’s Review:
I can only think of one thing wrong with this book; that it ended! Tavi continues battling for his life and all of Alera against the seemingly unstoppable Vord. Full of action and heart-rending moments First Lord’s Fury is a brilliant conclusion to Jim Butcher’s Codex Alera series. This is a series that builds upon itself, so there is not a lot I can say plot-wise about this book without spoiling the other five, but I will just say that if you haven’t read Furies of Calderon (the first book in the series) yet, you should! The story pacing is excellent; with an equal blend of heroic battles, natural romance, fantastical elements, clever wit, and mystery. Needless to say I was sad to see the story end, but was happy with the conclusion. *crossingfingersformorebookstocome*
