The aging First Lord of Alera has fallen in battle. Yet his people must continue to resist an invading inhuman army. Desperate Alerans even pledge fealty to the Vord Queen to survive, turning the incredible power of Aleran furies back on their own people. And despite all efforts, the Alerans are being ground into dust and pushed to the farthest reaches of their own realm.
However, Tavi has returned with vital insights from the Canim Blood Lands. He knows how to counter the Vord and, more importantly, believes human ingenuity can equal fury-born powers. Now events are rushing towards a last stand, where Tavi and the last Aleran legions must formulate a dangerous new strategy, together. For a civilisation is on the brink of extinction.

After reading the first five books I just had to read the sixth to close out the series, and it was well worth it.

A Great Ending To a Brilliant Series
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 November 2019Verified Purchase
An absolutely fantastic series, couldn’t put them down. The best series I have read in a long time.
Very fast paced with a lot of action. Great characters, that grew on you as you got to know them and grew with each book.
Thoroughly recommend them. Feeling deflated now as whatever I choose to read next has to live up to them.

Great ending to a series
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 April 2013Verified Purchase
The last book of "The Codex Alera" is another brick. "First Lord's Fury" is almost 700 pages long.
I think the reason I like Tavi's character is because he is a bit crazy. Just crazy enough to see possibilities where the rest of us aren't able to. Me, I lack that piece of genius that I sometimes meet in other people. Not often, but enough times to know how precious that ability is.
Tavi sees allies in traditional enemies, possibilities in impossibilities and hope where the rest of us give up. (Yes, I do realize he is a fictional character!) Sometimes people like this can be terribly annoying because giving up can be soooo tempting. He does annoy his friends at times. But this trait is also what has brought enemies to help and now another enemy needs to be brought into the battle against the Vord.
In "Princep's Fury" Tavi discovered once and for all that the Vord were impossible to talk with/to. Their only aim in life is to convert Alera into Vord (land and creatures). However, the first Vord queen is a bit off for a Vord. She has limited the number of queens and made them sterile to boot. This gives Tavi some hope that Alera might prevail against them in the end.
Invidia Aquitaine is still fighting on the Vord queen's side while her husband is the leader of the people left behind in Alera. The First Lord is dead and Tavi needs to hurry back to resolve the succession question at the same time as he utilizes any and all means to prevent the further spread of the Vord. But to do that he needs to take down the queen and that is quite a task. Thankfully, his old allies and family are still alive and fighting for the survival of Alera.

One of the best I’ve read in a long long tome
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 June 2018Verified Purchase
Pretty much read all six books back to back in the space of two weeks would regard myself as. A veteran SF and fantasy reader and can’t describe the pleasure when you stumble across a new series in the genre that keeps you riveted across six volumes - characters are brilliant and the development of Tavi is nothing short I inspired!
I read that Jim butcher was challenged to write a credible story incorporating Romans and Pokemon. He did it in spades - I’m gutted it’s finished!!
I initially bought all these books in Kindle but I will be buying the paper versions in the near future- too good to not be sitting on my book shelves!!

A thoroughly enjoyable read.

As the final book (?) of the saga, the story concludes to a point though there is potential for more history and adventures. I have enjoyed the whole journey.
