The final(?) book in Jim Butcher's Codex Alera series, this one picks up not long after the events of the previous novel, with Tavi on his way home from the Canim homeland, and ends the story first began in 'Furies of Claderon', while still leaving plenty of scope for other novels to be set in the same world. Regarding the series as a whole: while, I found, that they did get better as they went along (the first, in particular, feeling to me like it was very much rote), I also felt that (individually and collectively) they never reached the same level as Butcher's Dresden Files series. Out of the six books in this (Codex Alera) series, I felt the best of them was the third - 'Cursor's Fury' - although you would also need to have read them in order to see the over-all picture. Finished? Yes. Enjoyed? Yes. Will I re-read them? Unlikely.
