Books Included in This Collection:
Captain's Fury
In Captain's Fury, Tavi of Calderon, now captain of his own Legion, has fought a brutal war for two years. When he discovers the invading Canim are harbingers of a broader, more dangerous threat, the stakes rise quickly. The Canim are themselves hunted by a brutal race closing in on Alera's borders. With options dwindling, Tavi proposes a fragile alliance with the Canim—but the Senate's new military commander seeks only to annihilate them and the enslaved people who have found freedom with these invaders. The novel tightens the political noose around Tavi while expanding the perilous web of loyalties and power.

First Lord's Fury
The aging First Lord of Alera has fallen in battle, yet his people must continue resisting an inhuman army. Desperate Alerans even pledge fealty to the Vord Queen to survive, testing faith, strategy, and the very concept of power as the extraordinary force of Aleran furies reshapes loyalties and decisions. This entry deepens the political chessboard and intensifies the sense of an entire civilization on the brink, where every choice could tilt the balance between survival and ruin.

Cursor's Fury
Power-hungry Kalare has rebelled against Alera's aging First Lord, Gaius Sextus. Ill-equipped to counter the threat, Gaius must seek unlikely support—even from the combative High Lord of Aquitaine. Kalare's hostage-taking could prove decisive for victory or defeat, while Amara, the First Lord's Cursor, is charged with a perilous rescue that could shift the war's outcome. The tension between loyalty, ambition, and duty drives the narrative forward in a tightly wound climb to the series’ darker turning points.

Furies Of Calderon
For a millennium, the people of Alera have relied on a bond with the furies—earth, air, fire, water, and metal—to unite against threatening races. But as First Lord Gaius Sextus ages and succession politics threaten the realm, ambitious lords maneuver for power. A looming war of succession, paired with ancient rivalries and the power of the furies, creates a brisk, immersive opening to the Codex Alera saga and sets the stage for the epic journeys that follow.
