rockstar_girl83 's review for:
The Outcasts
by John Flanagan
I picked this up at the library, after having read Flanagan's Ranger's Apprentice series and loving it to absolute pieces. I had to wait a while after it was released to be able to start this one, because I loved Will and Halt too much. I almost felt like I was betraying them by reading this series (because I'm a geek like that) but I'm so glad I finally did.
This is the story of a half Araluen/half Skandian boy named Hal, and a group of other Skandian boys who go through what they call brotherband training together. It's set on the same world as the Ranger's Apprentice series, and there's a few familiar faces from there in these books (which makes me hope that Will and Halt may eventually make an appearance) - most notably Erak, the Oberjarl of Skandia.
Flanagan's characters are very well-written, and generally well-rounded, and there's several moments in The Outcasts that had me laughing out loud. I can't wait to get started on the second book, The Invaders.
