About this listen
In the realm of Alera, where people bond with the furies - elementals of earth, air, fire, water, and metal - 15-year-old Tavi struggles with his lack of furycrafting. But when his homeland erupts in chaos - when rebels war with loyalists and furies clash with furies - Tavi's simple courage will turn the tides of war.

Since time immemorial the Spires have sheltered humanity, towering for miles over the mist-shrouded surface of the world.

Fiercely loyal to Spire Albion, he has taken their side in the cold war with Spire Aurora, disrupting the enemy's shipping lines by attacking their cargo vessels.

My life definitely wasn’t going according to plan, but that all changed the moment I died unexpectedly. Now I’ve been reborn into the fantasy metropolis of Dragonmont City, where I get a second chance to flourish. A twist of fate brings me into contact with Paulina, the proud but troubled owner of Goblin Girl Maid Service. Together with her slightly crazy best friend Kennedi, these two insanely beautiful goblin girls are trying to get their struggling business off the ground. But the competition, in the form of bearded dwarf ladies with a serious attitude problem, has never been stiffer.

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

Worth the Read - Adventure/Fantasy
I read this series years ago but never finished it. So I'm listening to the audiobooks to refresh my memory before continuing the series.
I delved into these books at different stages in life, and I still enjoyed the story. Each character has an intriguing arc and we're on the journey to find out how their past, present, and future will tie together. So far, the characters are "in character" and their actions and development are well rounded and true, which makes them all fascinating and relatable. Every action taken by a singular person has a ripple effect that carries throughout the storyline and it's fun to look back and try to identify the "what ifs". The characters have been set in motion, and I'm excited to see them develop.

Awesome!
One of my all-time favorite fantasy tales. Extremely well performed.
Great characters, interesting and vivid settings, and a wonderfully gripping and twisty plot.

great book
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.

Reading was great
Reading was great, however, it was either my phone or how the reading was edited together where some parts seemed abrupt, like words had been skipped..

One of my Favourite Series
I love this series. I read it every year. One of Jim’s best. It’s what got me started on his works and I haven’t looked back in more than a decade.

its worth the listen
it was good, but too formulaic of the genre; a boy that does not look like he will amount to much turns out to be the savior of the kingdom.

Loved it.
I loved this story. It was a compelling read and a figurative paper turner. 10/10 would recommend
