Synopsis

Unleash the Fury!

Zhikotse. Shallingsport. Louvain. Sacred fields of battle on far-flung worlds where warriors of the Imperial Cadre spent blood and lives defending human civilization. Alicia DeVries was there; she led the charge. Her reward: Betrayal by a
deceitful empire. Retirement to obscurity.

Now Alicia is the only survivor of a brutal attack on her frontier-world family. Not since the mighty Achilles has the ancient spirit of the Fury Tisiphone taken up residence inside a human being. But not since Achilles has a warrior so skilled, so
implacable, and possessing so much battle sense sprung up among the mass of humankind. Hero of the Empire. Holder of the Banner of Terra.

There is a blood price to be paid. The Fury has awakened.

An elite warrior in a line stretching to the U.S. Marines of old Earth is born and comes into her power in a mega-novel of heroism and adventure by multiple New York Times bestseller David Weber, creator of the Honor Harrington saga!

Many other reviewers on this site have noted that this book was written at two different times. The “old stuff” was published as the novel “Path of the Fury”, and 450 pages of “new stuff” was added years later at the beginning to remake it into “In Fury Born”. Several reviewers here have commented t......more

Having recently finished the excellent Honor Harrington series, I decided it was high time to peruse David Weber's backlog of other titles.

Wow! This is the best SciFi I've read in a very long time! I think that the last time was Ender's game. I might have to re-read Ender's game to compare which one is the best... SciFi appeals to the little boy inside you to identify with the main character (even if it's a woman in this case) and here......more

This is a reworked and massively expanded version of Path of the Fury, which was one of my favorite Weber books.

Goodreads review by Scott on July 13, 2015
