Editorial Review: Product Description: Time has passed since the apprentice and his master, Will and Halt, led the Araluens to victory against invaders, and Will is now a full-fledged Ranger with his own fief to look after. The fief seems sleepy— boring, even—until the king is poisoned. Joined by his friend Alyss, Will is thrown headfirst into an extraordinary adventure propelled by fears of sorcery, and must determine who is trustworthy to the king and who is trying to take his throne. Will and Alyss must battle growing hysteria, traitors, and most of all, time. The king is fading, but when Alyss is taken hostage, Will is forced to make a desperate choice between loyalty to his mission and loyalty to his friend. Adventure abounds in this absorbing installment of the New York Times bestselling series. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Grandson Was ThrilledI purchased this for a Christmas present. My grandson had read the previous ones and was waiting his turn on a library list.

Also, was disappointed in the ending - it just stopped. Not nice. Really look forward to finding out what happens next.

John Flanagan does a really good job keeping his readers entertained with the story of Will becoming a Ranger. Since I have read the first part of the series I assumed that this was a good book and was correct.
