Well, as I've said before, this series of "YA" books has (in my opinion) run hot and cold. I found I lost interest during the volumes on the, The Icebound Land, and Oakleaf Bearers (though Oakleaf Bearers picks up a little in the4 end). This book hit me somewhat the same as these two. First, this is a flashback...and with a "flashback in the center of a book series", I've always got to ask, "why"? The author says it's a sort of, an "oops, I forgot to tell you this story of what happened that led2.5 stars, rounded upReview to come
This was the first book in the series that I was disappointed in. If it had been placed in it's proper sequence according to the timeline of the other books, it would be read before book 5. Flanagan goes back in time to tell a story before Will becomes a full fledged Ranger. If it had been placed before book 5, I wouldn't have been disappointed. However, I felt that there were certain elements that would have been referred to in book 5 and 6 that couldn't because this book hadn't been written
Well...well... looks like Will &co. were loooong way from home in this 7th book... Get trapped on sand storm, lost direction and half dead on vast dessert, wagering Tug on Bedullin tribe's race and Halt nearly beheaded? What went wrong here? Wait a minute, where were they actually?(By the way, story wise it was between 4th and 5th book, so I read this before the 5th, but it was the 7th book of the installment) (view spoiler)[Taken time some years after the peace treaty had signed between
It's a wobbly 3 stars. I was really disappointed in this entry in the series. It was based around the capture of a an old friend ( almost adversary ) Erak one of the Skandians from previous books. The problem was the focus was mainly on the rescue and then trouble that the team of heroes get into and not the captive. The one thing that did save this book for me was the horse race in the desert. It was a brief race but it was thrilling.The author did state that this entry in the series went back
This book can better be read before book 5, because now I already knew how the book ended. Nevertheless this book was a lot of fun and I loved that they went on a journey with all my favorite characters in a new place!
Well well well, that went too well. It was fantastic in fact! One of my favorites in the whole Ranger's Apprentice series <3 Erak's Ransom is: *Cute! (Halt's wedding, sweet remarks between Halt and Lady Pauline, Horace and Gilan, Will's graduation)*Adventurous! (I just love how the adventures take place in different landscapes and countries: Celtica, Lands of Rain and Night, Skandia, Gallia, Arrida -I'm not sure the spelling is correct. The characters have experienced the freezing climate of
