Rangers Apprentice: The Siege of Macindaw

Rangers Apprentice: The Siege of Macindaw


This is the continuation of the complicated plot up at Castle Macindaw. I’m not going to reveal pretty much any of the plot since that would be a spoiler to the previous book, but I will reveal little tid-bits.

Will was faced with a pretty hard choice when he helped Orman (the rightful ruler of Macindaw) escape from the renegade ‘Sir’ Keren. Not only that, but Alyss is being held captive by the same wonderfully traitorous knight. Thankfully, Halt and Crowley had the insight to send some backup for Will; but, I’m not telling you who they send. As the plot continues to thicken, and the characters join forces against a traitorous plot that could mean the downfall of the Kingdom of Arluen. Can Will save Alyss? Will Keren's plan work, or will he change his mind and repent? Also, what will happen to Shadow, Will's dog, when he leaves Macindaw? All these questions leave you wanting to keep reading right up until the end.

All in all I would give this book a 10 out of 10, since John Flanagan did such a marvelous job in continuing the plot and keeping you reading up until the very end. He used great imagery, so much that you can feel like you're Will shooting arrows or Keren sweating at the meaning of what he is doing. Rangers Apprentice: The Siege of Macindaw is a great read, especially if you are a fan of the series. Hope that you enjoy it!!!
