Cursor's Fury by Jim Butcher
4.0
An enjoyable addition to the Codex Alera Series, [b:Cursor's Fury|29394|Cursor's Fury (Codex Alera, #3)|Jim Butcher|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1168029475s/29394.jpg|6614461] corrects some of the pacing issues I had with the two previous books in the series and shows that [a:Jim Butcher|10746|Jim Butcher|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1205261964p2/10746.jpg] is getting more comfortable writing the world of Alera. I'm excited to start the next novel because each book I've read so far has been better than the one before it. Even though I had some issues with structure and writing, from the 1st novel I've been in love with the characters, and I definitely want to see how their stories progress.
I'm a great fan of the Dresden series (I think it's one of my top 5 fantasy series I'm currently reading, and maybe of all times), so at times I think the Codex Alera series suffers in comparison. In this novel, however, I spent much less time thinking "This isn't the Dresden files", and much more time immersed in the story.
