The Lost Stories by John Flanagan
5.0
When I found out that Flanagan was writing another book to tie up the Ranger's Apprentice series, I was thrilled. (Yes, I'm a teenage girl who fell in love with books written for middle school guys >_> )
Anyway, it lived up to all of my expectations. And more. Flanagan started from the very beginning, explaining just how Will came to be orphaned, and went all the way to Will probably in his 30s or so. And the stories didn't just deal with Will. We got to watch Alyss in 'spy mode', which was fantastic to see that side of her personality fully in a short story. There is also a story heavily involving Jenny and what life is like for her back at her restaurant.
Basically, Flanagan picked some really important milestones to cover, and he answered almost all of the questions that I had about the series when it ended.
And my favorite part? How brilliantly this book ties the Ranger's Apprentice series to the new series - of which the first book comes out November 1st!
