9+: Rangers Apprentice 6 : The Siege of Macindaw - John Flanagan

Release Date: 02/09/10

BOOK BLURB:

Will, your time is running out.

A renegade knight has captured Castle Macindaw, poisoning the royal family and is conspiring to overthrow the Kingdom.

For you, this battle is even more personal. For inside the castle, someone you love is being held hostage.

You are a Ranger now, and you must be the hero you were trained to be.


REVIEW:

The sixth title and one that continues directly after events in The Sorcerer in the North and as such has to be read after the previous. It’s clever, the characters really are coming into their own with each adding their own strengths to the overall tale helping where others are weaker.

Add to this a virtual horde of Skandian’s, some Scotti and some magical deception which overall gives the reader one serious rollercoaster ride as they await to find out the results of our heroes latest endeavours for King and Country. Great stuff.
