The tenth book of the Ranger’s Apprentice was amazing! I really loved how this book made Horace a more important character, and he was featured more in this book then the other books in the series. I also loved how Evanlyn and Alyss became friends and overcame their jealousies, they were only enemies ,because Alyss thought Evanlyn was trying to steal her boyfriend, it was pretty funny. When Horace was trying to learn Nihon-jan swordsmanship, and how the Emperor of Nihon-ja and Horace became good friends like brothers even. When Ariska rebelled against the emperor and the emperor had to find help from the lower class villagers it was really nice how they respected the emperor because he was always fair to them. It was really cool how Evanlyn and Alyss worked together to take down the giant beast that killed villagers.
A good idea for a sequel to the tenth book would involve Horace and Evanlyn’s wedding and I feel like Will should now get an apprentice,because I’m sure that Will is ready. In the sequel, Will and Halt and Will’s apprentice should go on an adventure and get out of Araluen. The sequel should be about Wills apprentice and how they along with Halt go on an adventure. There should be more about the love life of the group of friends and Horace and Will’s old childhood companions.

The Emperor of Nihon-Ja was really special to me,because it was more about Horace and how he bonds with the Emperor of Nihon-Ja and the emperor teaches him the ways of Nihon-Ja. Every book in the Ranger's apprentice series is extremely good and it is my new favorite series of all time. It as the first time Horace went on a military mission alone. This is the first book that Evanlyn openly admitted that she loves Horace and how the happy couple finally are gonna get married, I hope. A lot of things were a first in this
I recomend Sophia’s War to an 8th grader, in 8th grade when you go over Revolutionary war this is the best book to read. I like this book because its like hunger game’s action and thriller like scream the movie because you don’t know whats gonna happen and it has plot twists, for example the idea of a traitor. This book gets a ⅘ for me, undobtedly I would read this book again, in a
I loved this book so much. There is so much action and is so much better and exciting with so much amazing detail and description. This is one of my favorite books ever. When you read it, you don’t want to put it down and it makes you feel like you are with the characters in the book and you know them so well. I recommend this book to anyone who can read at this level.
John Flanagan’s Ranger’s Apprentice: The Icebound Land is the successor to the second book in the series Ranger’s Apprentice: The Burning Bridge. In the previous book, Will and Evanlyn were captured by Skandian Raiders. Halt, Will’s teacher, made a promise to himself that he would find will and bring them back to Araluen. In this book, Halt and Horace, Will’s best friend, go on a quest to retrieve them.
But, the way the author used symbolism, foreshadowing, and relatable quotes stood out to me the most. When I was reading and even after, I found myself making connections and thinking deeper into the books
As I read “April Morning” I found it very hard to stop reading. It is a fast moving book that goes through, in detail, each battle that Adam had to face in just 24 hours. I loved Adams character mostly because of his sarcasm in the beginning of the novel. I liked the fact that he did not really want to shoot and kill the Redcoats he just wanted them to leave. The book was cleverly written, and I admired Howard Fast for being able to write a book just about one day and still keeps it interesting the whole way through. I never found myself getting bored or tiered of reading it. I think it gives a great perspective on what the Battle of Lexington was like. It had everything a book, in my opinion, should have: love, hate, sorrow, terror, adventure, and action. A great read for anyone interested in learning more about our American history and how the American Revolution
One thing that I like about the book is that Eragon has continued his training.I also like that Christopher has added Roran to the story. I also like how they added some more conflicts to the story. One thing I don’t like is that they make the chapters so short. Also I don’t like that Sloan refuse to give Roran his blessing to marry his daughter. Also that there is so much conflict in Carvahall that most people can’t focus on what they need to
The characters bring a riveting story to life when reading. Throughout the book, I felt emotions left and right for the characters and what they were going through. There is a lot of mystery and questioning that will be answered later in the book, but once its done, there are still many questions being asked. when I look for a book, that is something that stands out to me because I really want to read more, and when you have that reaction to a book, that means it was worth reading. I found this book remarkable because of the behaviors, characteristics, and decisions that the characters make, and I recommend this book to everyone, even if they don’t like to
First, I like the thoroughness of detail in some parts of the book. For example when reading about the circus acts it is like being there seeing it with my own eyes. I also, like how it gives you an off the stage or behind the scene view of some of the circus characters and how the interact with each other being more like a big family rather than just some random people that came together just to put on a show. I believe this sheds a new light on the fact that just because someone or something may appear different it's so easy just to look at a person and cast judgement without actually knowing the person for whom he or she is inside.
I liked the book because i thought their was a lot of detail added into the story also i think that it was kind of neet that their was good characters
My favorite reading was, Parable of the Sower, by Octavia Butler hands down. I believe the connection that was made with real life situations such as the Berlin wall of the Cold War or the 1992 Los Angeles Rebellion in which was a very interesting and knowledegable aspect to adhere upon.
The chapters that describe the characters’ pasts make the reader feel as if they are watching that character’s personality develop over their lifetime even though it is only a couple pages. The most enjoyable part was the chapter over Herman Husband that tells about his entire past and how his beliefs and opinions were influenced. I was able to have a closer connection with this character because there was a lot of information given about him. Also because from the author’s perspective he was portrayed as someone brave and understanding. Which is why when the book ended there was a sadness to it, the readers could feel a sense of emotion for the man in the cell and a stronger effect left behind by his parting words. Another enjoyable moment was when the author described the rebels and how people felt when they finally saw them after they were defeated. It created a very vivid image that explained why the people watching felt a sense of disappointment at seeing them. There was a lot of depth over the characters and how each had their part in influencing the Whiskey Rebellion however Hogeland only briefly talks about the last battle of the Rebellion that led to the rebels being captured and forced to walk for miles. More information could have been added to give the reader a better understanding as to why exactly they may have lost or what led the most to their downfall.
All the books have relatively similar themes, the main one being courage. Will showed courage in many different ways and proved that courage isn't just about standing up for what's right, but sticking by it no matter the cost. This was shown well in John Flanagan's book Ranger's Apprentice The Burning Bridge. He gave many examples of courage ranging from someone standing up to the enemy, or stepping out of their comfort zone to complete a goal.
The book Outcasts is a very enjoyable book to just sit down some time and read for fun. This book and the books that follow are an offshoot of John Flanagan’s original story the Ranger's Apprentice. His writing style is very similar to the other books we has written. Very simple easy read and understand what he is trying to tell. This story will not take much of your time so you could read a few chapters a day and be done in a week, that is if after you start reading you can put the book back down. No, you won’t have to read the Ranger's Apprentice first, but I would recommend that you do so that you can have some background. If you liked that series, then you will love his newest one. It follows the story of a 16 year old boy named Hal going
This book made me feel like I could relate with all of the characters and how they reacted to living in a new area. Also I enjoyed reading and seeing how relationships develop throughout the book. Like Bellamy´s relationship with Clarke ¨When he saw her running toward him, he lowered his ax to the ground and turned to face her with a grin, (Morgan 191). Although you could also feel the intensity of some of the situations, but on the other hand, you can really imagine the happy parts of the book because of the way the author writes with great amounts of
I really enjoyed how the author uses Romanian mythology to create this complex world in the series. The book moved at a fast pace and kept me interested until the very end. The only part of the book that I wished the author made would be to add more action because a lot people who read this book think it’s just about vampires in high school, but the second book features so much action.
