Codex Alera. Book 4. Commander’s Furies

The First Aleran Legion, led by Tavi Calderon, is a living shield, preventing the beast-like Canim from breaking deeper into the country for two years now. During this time, the enemy army has learned to fight much more skillfully, and... many slaves, who received their freedom thanks to the Canim, have now flowed into its ranks and are ready to fight to the death against their former masters. But Tavi learns that the Canim are harbingers of a much greater danger. They themselves are victims—a savage race has driven them from their native land. This means there is no choice but to forge an alliance with them against a common enemy. However, Senator Arnos, the head of the Military Committee that Tavi is subordinate to, desires only one thing: to eradicate the Canim “plague” and destroy the Alerans who have found themselves in enemy-occupied territory... For the first time in Russian!
