Captain's Fury by Jim Butcher

by Chadwick Ginther - Wednesday, Dec 05, 2007 at 10:53am

Prolific author Jim Butcher is back with the fourth tale in his Codex Alera series. Once again, Butcher shows his talent for blending genres, Captain's Fury will appeal to fans of military fantasy, as well as those who prefer their novels filled with political intrigue.

One can say many things about author Jim Butcher, but top of the list has to be his ability to keep his reader's turning pages. Each chapter you finish forces you to read the next until you look up and realize it is after midnight, but maybe, just maybe you can squeeze those last seventy pages in before you pass out.
