More About This Book

Overview

The renegade outlaw group known as the Outsiders may have been chased from Clonmel, but not before killing Halt's only brother. Now Rangers Halt and Will, along with the young warrior Horace, are in pursuit. The Outsiders have done an effective job of dividing the kingdom into factions and are looking to overtake Araluen. It will take every bit of skill and cunning for the Rangers to survive. Some may not be so lucky.

The international bestselling Ranger's Apprentice series turns up the tension in John Flanagan's latest epic of battles and bravery.

Editorial Reviews

From Barnes & Noble

Rangers Halt and Will are in hot pursuit of the Outsiders, the cruel renegades who killed Halt's only brother. The motivation of the Rangers could not be more personal, but the Outsiders hold strategic advantages that can threaten the very lives of these brave warriors. A well-armed addition to the acclaimed Ranger's Apprentice series by John Flanagan.

Children's Literature
Tennyson and his cult of Outsiders are on the run, but rangers Halt and Will, along with warrior Horace, have picked up their trail. Their mission is to bring the criminals to justice for their evil deeds, including the murder of Halt's twin brother, King Ferris. The three heroes use their excellent tracking skills to follow the villains, beginning to close the distance between the two groups. Alerted to their presence, Tennyson sends his two paid assassins to put an end to the trouble. Halt and Will are able to take out one of the assassins, but in the process, a crossbow bolt strikes Halt, a minor injury made lethal by the poison on the tip. Now Will chooses to put the chase on hold, valuing his best friend and former mentor's life above the pursuit of Tennyson's gang. He rides day and night as he seeks out the famous healer Malcolm, hoping to bring him back to camp before the poison can claim Halt's life. The ninth book in the "Ranger's Apprentice" series, this tale provides great visualization and description as the characters navigate their way through the forest landscape. Its action is slow to develop, but the pace quickens as readers await the outcome of Halt's battle for his life. The story also provides a great springboard for ethical discussions, specifically in how far one would go to save a friends' life. With few female characters and a fictional setting reminiscent of medieval Europe, this book is likely to draw in male readers—both old fans of the series and newcomers alike.

Meet the Author

John Flanagan
John Flanagan

John Flanagan grew up in Sydney, Australia hoping to be a writer. It wasn’t until he wrote a highly uncomplimentary poem about a senior executive at the agency he worked, however, that his talent was revealed. It turned out one of the company directors agreed with John’s assessment of the executive, and happily agreed to train John in copywriting.

After writing advertising copy for the next two decades, John teamed with an old friend to develop a television sitcom, Hey Dad!, which went on to air for eight years.

John began writing Ranger’s Apprentice for his son, Michael, ten years ago, and is still hard at work on the series. He currently lives in the suburb of Manly, Australia, with his wife. In addition to their son, they have two grown daughters and four grandsons.

    Cannot Wait!

    I love the Ranger's Apprentice series. It's hooked me since the first page of book one, with great characters, interesting plotlines, and just wonderful writing. It's a true hero's story about a young orphan, Will, and the way his life changes when a mysterious Ranger, Halt, takes him as an apprentice. But the story also has a theme of friendship and trust, which I just loved. The story is put together throughout books one through eight, in a different, but effective way. (Books one through four are Will as an apprentice, books five, six, and eight are when he is full Ranger, and seven is in the middle of the two groups.) Book nine looks both exciting and great. Halt is, by far, my favorite character, and "Halt's Peril" might mean some bad news for him. (Apparently there is a funeral at the end. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!!) Anyhow, the Ranger's Apprentice series is great , and more than worth reading. I'm positive that this beautifully writing fantasy will not let you down for a moment. I can't wait!

    i love this series!!!!!!! once you start reading the first book you getted hooked with the series. when i found out thet the ninth book wasnt ou tyet and i finished reading the eighth book i was sad. my favorite carecters are halt and will. halt because he had the courage to ask pauline to marry his event hough she knows that he will have to leave at random times to save the kingdom.will because he also has romantic times with alyse and its verry cute how he puts it. will does most of the action but when halt gets into the action it an unbelievable turnout.

    The story continues...and gets better with every book!

    Halt may be the character featured on this book's cover and title, but never have we seen so much action from Will and Horace they work with Halt to chase after the Outsider's run for their lives. With each book in this series, we find out more and more how deep the relationship is between the two rangers and the young knight. Each member of this close knit team is incredible in their own right - but is a force to be reckoned with when working together. Tears will come to your eyes at the conclusion of this book as we find that the love between Will and his adopted family will never cease.

    I can't wait until The Emperor of Nihon-ja is released in April 2011!

    Suspenseful Read

    Halt's Peril lived up to everything I expected from the series that has won me over. The characters are given difficult situations and they react well and you get a deep insight into the problems they see and feel. Flanagan does a good job with this. I found there was more humor in this book than in previous. Every other page has some sort of joke and I found it lightening and serving a purpose. The main plot of the story is dark and this humor lightens the mood well. Overall, I found it a great book. There was plenty of action and suspense that I have come to appreciate from this author. I hope the next in the series, when it comes is just as good. I would recommend this to anyone.
