Furies of calderon - jim butcher

In the realm of Alera, where people bond with the furies--elementals of earth, air, fire, water, wood, and metal--15-year-old Tavi struggles with his lack of furycrafting.

As his homeland erupts in chaos--when rebels war with loyalists and furies clash with furies--Tavis simple courage will turn the tides of war.

In this extraordinary fantasy epic, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Dresden Files leads readers into a world where the fate of the realm rests on the shoulders of a boy with no power to call his own.

For a thousand years, the people of Alera have united against the aggressive and threatening races that inhabit the world, using their unique bond with the furies--elementals of earth, air, fire, water, wood, and metal.

But in the remote Calderon Valley, the boy Tavi struggles with his lack of furycrafting.

At fifteen, he has no wind fury to help him fly, no fire fury to light his lamps.

Yet as the Alerans most savage enemy--the Marat horde--return to the Valley, Tavis courage and resourcefulness will be a power greater than any fury, one that could turn the tides of war.
