Book 10 in the Ranger's Apprentice series. Horace has been training in Nihon-Ja to learn new fighting techniques. While there, he is pulled into battle when the rightful emperor, who is a strong advocate for basic human rights, is dethroned. Horace must do what he believes is right and soon he, Will and the other Araluens are in a fight for their lives alongside farmers and woodcutters.
This series continues to hold my attention. The characters continue to grow and develop – although they do have a remarkable knack for staying alive in impossible situations. This says it was the final battle and therefore the final installment in the series. It does come to a conclusion, but it would be lovely if more books were to be written anyway.

Another one of John Flanagan's fantastic books
Wow!!! What an amazing book!!! I am sad and will truly miss reading all of their adventures and battles together!! This is a series that I wouldn't mind reading again.

In addition to Flanagan’s usual awful writing of women characters (choice quote: “They were the only two females in their group”...who calls women females?) this book manages to be even more racist than Erak’s Ransom. Selethen is back, and again is always mentioned alongside his “hawklike” nose, because how else would we know he’s supposed to be Arab? But while the racism in Erak’s Ransom was mostly confined to the nose obsession, this whole book’s premise is white saviorism. Flanagan has taken essentially the Satsuma rebellion, an internal Japanese conflict (that, notably, also involved kicking out colonialist foreigners) and re-written it so the Japanese need to be saved by Englishmen teaching them Roman fighting tactics. Oh, and also the Ainu are giant hairy beasts. Glad I bought the book secondhand.
