Title: Ranger’s Apprentice
Author: John Flanagan
If you love history, with tales of knights and mysterious sorcerers, you’ll love this series. Ranger’s Apprentice doesn’t have anything to do with magic, though, but plenty of adventures!
In a world similar to ours, set in a period similar to the Middle Ages, Will, an orphan, has trouble on Choosing Day as none of the Craftsmasters wish to accept him for an apprentice… Except for a man shrouded in mystery with his dark, mottled cloak named Halt. Will finds himself drilled to join the mysterious society of the King’s Rangers, of which not many people know about…
Personally, this is my MOST FAVOURITE BOOK SERIES EVER (besides Harry Potter, Percy Jackson and Divergent)!! Its wording seems simpler, but the adventures are gripping and exciting!
Books in the series:
The Ruins of Gorlan
The Burning Bridge
The Icebound Land
Oakleaf Bearers (A.K.A. The Battle for Skandia in the U.S.)
The Sorcerer in the North
The Siege of Macindaw
Erak’s Ransom
The Kings of Clonmel
Halt’s Peril
The Emperor of Nihon-Ja
The Lost Stories
The Royal Ranger (upcoming in November)
