The Royal Ranger by John Flanagan
5.0
And so it ends. . .
I really wish that Flanagan could continue writing the series, or at least begin a new one with Maddie and Will's adventures. I'll never tire of reading about this world, these characters and these adventures. Every minute I've spent reading these books has been a minute well spent and I can honestly say that it is one of my favourite series for younger readers.
My journey with "The Ranger's Apprentice" began on my 10th birthday in January, 2005. Now, ten years later, it has ended with me finally finishing "The Royal Ranger". It has been a journey of tears, laughter and fearfulness with and for my beloved characters.
"The Royal Ranger" had me in tears before the first chapter was even through. It had me sympathising and pleading for happiness to return. It had me shell-shocked and aghast at Maddie's behaviour. It made me nostalgic for "The Ruins of Gorlan". It had me in morbid fright in its concluding chapters. But most of all it gave me great pride, not just with the epilogue, but with the way Flanagan concluded this series.
I commend you John Flanagan for creating a world so relatable, so very near real, that your readers feel as if they are there with your characters. I always wanted to be a Ranger, and now Maddie has pioneered the way for us girls.
Bless you, John Flanagan, for giving me a decade of happiness and pleasant reading.
