1-23-10 Erak’s Ransom by John Flanagan – Fiction

5 – This is an interesting entry in the Ranger’s Apprentice series.  Erak’s Ransom covers the missing time between the 4th and 5th books giving the reader a new adventure with Will, Halt, Horace, and Evanlyn.  Obviously, Skandians are also involved and Flanagan takes the characters to a brand new land full of unfamiliar customs and wily adversaries.  The fights and intrigue are technical in their planning and the banter between the characters is easy and humorous as always.  A wonderful adventure that more than satisfies the curiosity of the reader as to what happened to Will right before he became a full Ranger.
