The Lost Stories by John Flanagan
3.0
For any avid readers of the Ranger's Apprentice series please disregard this review because this is the only book of the series I have read. Obviously, the 11th book is not the best place to start but I had it on hand so why not read it. Despite the fact that I started on the 11th book, it wasn't bad. From what I gathered this book is a hodgepodge of missing endings or other short adventures that John Flanagan put together for questions that fans had asked.
The Rangers are an elite group of royal knights that are trained to have almost inhuman reflexes and fighting ability, they also have seemed to have an odd attachment to their noble steeds that accompany them on their adventures (to the point that they have full conversations with their horses). Most of the book takes place after a great battle where a rebellion tried to take over the kingdom from the king who had lost his mind, but his son came to the rescue and saved the kingdom. Stories that cover of the background of the horses chosen for the Rangers and how Holt came to be a ranger are some examples of what John Flanagan goes over.
