Not the best but good

I’m a big rangers apprentice fan. I started listening when I was probably 14 or 15. These books got me through some tough times. With every new book that comes out feels like a reunion with my oldest bestie! Kinda like this: It doesn’t have to be the very best experience with my best friend but just so happy to be with ‘em! Anyway like another person stated there is a little bit of a plot hole. Why they couldn’t just sneak out of the tower like Maddie did is beyond me? If it was stated I must’ve missed it. Maybe it was because of king Duncan? Too sick to do that? I guess there is really a lot of reasons... anyway I did like seeing some my faves getting together but (I’m shouting this hoping John Flanagan hears me!) I would LOVE to see a book where EVERYONE is together. Honestly tho there are series where I was like “for real? There’s another book??” This series isn’t like that at all. This 25 year old momma is not ready to retire this teenage fantasy!

John keating is the best! Although I’m not sure I could listen to him narrate anything other these series. It would probably be way too confusing for me!


I do have a suggestion... do something really cool with an Olympics type event. I really would love to see all the kingdoms and countries come together in some crazy adventure!

Excellent

Captivating, well told. Great suspense. Recommending to all.
Great series. Addictive....... Thank you 👍

Incredible story

The book was amazing even better because it was delivered by a wonderful voice. I can’t finish an audiobook if it doesn’t have a good speaker and this one sure did.

another wonder

can't wait for more Flanagan writing at its best and keatings telling always fun

Awesome
