The battle for Fovea is on, and a girl named Raven and a man named Jack aren't even sure of which side they should be on. On one side is the Emperor, Rancor Mordetur, from their home planet of Earth. He seems to have a lot on this side - a massive army of highly trained warriors, the most feared witch on Fovea as his wife and superior technology born of another world. On the other is every Fovean Nation; savage Man and wild Uman, long-lived Uman-Chi and merciless Swamp Devils and Slee; all of them unwilling to be subjects of the Empire. But is the Empire evil, or do Raven and Jack not yet have the whole picture? And what of the song that so few people can hear, sung to them by an Uman-Chi girl barely 167 years old? If they can find the weapons mentioned in the song, can they win the day? Or, as the song says, are they doomed to fail? Indomitus Sum is the conclusion to Indomitus Oriens. Now you can finally learn the fate of those who have no faith, but who instead know the will of their gods.

Indomitus Sum is the concluding novel to the Indomitus Oriens. It is another chronicle set in the magical world of Fovea. War is now everywhere and the Emperor is sided against all Fovean nations, with a few earthlings stuck in the middle.
The Fovean world is full of magic, myth and all powerful gods. What the author accomplished so well is making the reader believe in it all.
The plot continuously thickens and turns, taking the reader to unexpected places. This is also true with the characters. Not everything is as it seems, mystery and intrigue shadowing their motives.
Overall, Indomitus Sum is a very well written novel. The author created a complex fantasy world, populated with many diverse characters, which in turn created a complicated storyline. Yet, the author manages to stay on track with the plot, further giving credence to the realism of the Fovean world.
Idomitus Sum: Book Four of the Fovean Chronicles by Robert W. Brady Jr is the final book in the series and it the conclusion. The fate is learned of those who have no faith and but who know the will of their God. This book is an intense read with twists and turns. If you haven't read the other three books in this series, it would be good to do so because it would give you even more of an experience in your reading. Robert Brady has done a fantastic job giving us a refreshing storyline and more complex characters. This was one of the best series I have read and I am so glad I was given the chance to read and review it. I look for many more from Robert W. Brady Jr.
I would like to thank Bostick Communications and the author, Robert Brady, for the opportunity to read and review this book. Indomitus Sum is a fantasy novel and is the conclusion of a long journey by the author. I found it hard to follow at times, as it seemed to jump back and forth to different characters and situations from section to section. In the end, I thought that it ended abruptly and left me with the feeling that it was a bit unfinished. If you are a fan of pure fantasy, I recommend reading this series from the beginning.
