Product Description

Product Description

As the Kingdom of Araluen prepares for war against Morgarath, Will and Horace accompany the Ranger Gilan on a mission to Celtica. But Celtica's villages are silent. Only an exhausted and starving girl called Evanlyn can tell them why: Morgarath has sent his foul creatures to enslave the Celts. While Gilan rides swiftly back to report this news to the King, Will, Horace and Evanlyn discover the true purpose behind Morgarath's actions. The Kingdom is sure to be defeated in a surprise three-sided attack - unless they can find a way to prevent it.

From the Back Cover

Will and Evanlyn exchanged a glance. Horace could see they'd come to the same conclusion. They both spoke at the same time. "Burn the bridge," they said.

"A great story . . . I could read it over and over again!"
Samantha Currie, Age 12

"An excellent read for anyone . . . John Flanagan has outdone himself"
Robert Rahme, Age 13

"It was fantastic! I can't wait to read more"

3.0 out of 5 stars A nice portal into the fantasy world for kids, 6 Aug 2007
By L. W. Gulbrandsen "Wild Norseman" (Oslo, Norway) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A quick and light read.
Being a bit quick ordering my last batch of books from amazon, I bought this solely on the positive review on this page, and was a bit shocked when I received it. It's an young adult book, meant for ages 10-15, which I don't think this page very clearly convey's.
Other than that, it's a well written book, not terribly original but with enough twist to make it exciting. Finished it in an afternoon while sunbathing, should be a quick an easy read for kids and first timers to fantasy. I would not compare this to Tolkien or Potter, it's more like Timothy Zahn's Dragonback adventures for young adults.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't be fooled, 11 Oct 2007
By C. C. Chivers "ccchivers" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
I'm in my early 30s and I loved this book. Yes, it is theoretically aimed at children, but so what? So are Harry Potter and Eragon and look at how many adults are reading those. This book is a damned good read as are many so-called children's books which have a lot of imagination put into them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, 22 Oct 2007
By C. Smith "clair4110" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Unlike the review which only gave this book 1 star I have actually read the book! I only bought it this morning and already finished it, whixh in itself must tell you something! I thought it was an excellent page turner for adults and children alike (- i read a lot of children's books as i am a primary teacher and am always on the look out for the next class novel). It has a fast plot and a main character that you can emphathise with, to the point in which you are caught up in Will's world!
I will be reading on with this series. Give it a try!
