Title: Ranger's Apprentice: The Royal Ranger.Author: John Flanagan.
Genre: Fiction, Fantasy, Action/Adventure, Humorous.
Plot: Some twenty years after the last Ranger's Apprentice book, Will is now an accomplished Ranger with a grey beard. Famous throughout the land, Will is a living legend. But his world is darkened by tragic grief and his friends are worried. Concerned, Gilan calls a meeting and attempts to find some way to help Will. It is Halt who comes up with a plan to solve two problems: assign Will an apprentice. But not just any apprentice; assign him Horace and Cassandra's rebellious daughter, Maddie.
While at first both have differing reactions to this idea, the pairing proves to be a sound one. Maddie learns humility and to be a King's Ranger, while Will slowly learns to laugh and live again. But when they stumble upon a kidnapping ring and venture to investigate, the plot things and Will faces a challenge he didn't anticipate. Will tragedy strike for a second time in his life?
Likes/Dislikes: This is the twelfth and supposedly final book in the amazing Ranger's Apprentice series. I sincerely doubt that this is the end of the series, as a whole new story twist has just sprouted and branched off. But it is a unique book in the series and I quite enjoyed it. I only wish that it hadn't been a character I liked who died.
Rating: PG-13 and up, mainly for reading level and content {violence}.
Date Report Written: March 4th, 2014.
