First Lord's Fury by Jim Butcher
5.0
Fast paced addition to Codex Alera finds Tavi coming back to Alera with the Canim, facing a land under seige from the Vord, and facing a potential battle with Attis/Aquitine, who was named ruler in Tavi's absence.
The problem is, of course, no one is entirely sure if Tavi is coming home. And there are plenty who doesn't want him to return, and doubt his ability to rule Alera even if he does. Tavi must face a number of battles - prove his furycrafting; maintain a tenuous alliance with the Canim; defeat the Vord Queen; and calm an angry Katai (who just figured out that generally, Citizens do not merely have sex with those they wish to marry) - all while keeping some pretty big secretes of his own.
Oh, and Isana and Aris? Do they manage to get get themselves into their own trouble? Of course they do. Which is probably for the best, since Attis' solution to his political struggles was to propose marriage to Isana - not a bad solution, granted, but it didn't sit too well with Aris.
