The next book in the Masters & Mages series that started with Cold Iron, from the master of fantasy Miles Cameron... Only fools think war is simple or glorious. On the magic-drenched battlefield, information is the lifeblood of victory, and Aranthur is about to discover that carrying messages, scouting the enemy, keeping his nerve, and passing on orders is more dangerous, and more essential, then an inexperienced soldier could imagine...especially when everything starts to go wrong.

Story
A vibrant and powerful epic set against an alternate Bronze Age, this tale of gods, men and monsters, conspiracy and war, is a rich, compelling and original tale from a master of the historical and fantasy genres. The people caught up in toils of the gods are merely trying to survive. Victims of vicious whims, trapped by their circumstances or pushed beyond what the mortal frame can bear, a handful of god-touched mortals—a scribe, a warlord, a dancer and a child - are about to be brought together in a conspiracy of their own.

Story
Twenty-eight florins a month is a huge price to pay for a man to stand between you and the Wild. Twenty-eight florins a month is nowhere near enough when a wyvern's jaws snap shut on your helmet in the hot stink of battle, and the beast starts to rip the head from your shoulders. But if standing and fighting is hard, leading a company of men - or worse, a company of mercenaries - against the smart, deadly creatures of the Wild is even harder. It takes all the advantages of birth, training, and the luck of the devil to do it.

The Beginning of a Wonderful Journey
Furies of Calderon was a great book with an interesting magic system. I love Jim Butcher's Dresden series and thought I'd give his fantasy a try. Since reading this, I have continued the series which I LOVE, however, this first book is a bit of a slog due to the numerous character perspectives all running parallel scenarios simultaneously. Isana is captured, then Tavi is captured, then Bernerd is captured. Isana is in pain, Tavi is in pain, then Amara is in pain. You don't get much relief from a storyline between characters. Despite this, the book is worth the slog, and the following books are incredible and Kate Redding's performance is masterful. Check it out! #Audible1

fun book with a good mix of suspense and comedy. I didn't understand the connection of abilities to some furies. some were clear but others seemed random and some were never really explained. I look forward to learning more in the next books.

Fantastic
The story, characters and especially world building in this book are all amazing and it’s just as good in audiobook form as it as to read. The world here is so vibrant and unique that it’s hard not to be swept away in it. My one complaint is the voice actress (who is really talented and almost always fantastic) has a problem with sensual or seductive voices which is kinda of a problem when one of the main supporting characters is a temptress type character....her scenes get a little awkward
Other than that fantastic performance for one of my favourite book series ever!
