Cursor's Fury by Jim Butcher

In this book Tavi finds himself shuffled off to a legion where he should be far away from the impending civil war. Of course, as these things go, this legion quickly becomes the only thing standing between the Canim and Alera--and Tavi becomes the only officer left standing. There were several parts where I felt the story was getting a little pat--things were difficult for Tavi, but he got just the crucial piece of information or aid or insight at the right moment. Still, I think this series is doing a good job balancing having a wide scope but still keeping the characters and the range of action manageable. Every time I finish one of these books, I can't wait to see what happens in the next one.
