About the book

Synopsis

Will, you will survive this battle, but others may not be so lucky.

You are on the trail of an evil gang - the Outsiders, who have escaped justice for their crimes.

Halt is determined to stop them but they are sneaky, cunning and dangerous. When the battle begins, will your extraordinary archery skills be enough to save you all, or will this be your mentor's final battle?

What the critics say

The second part of this two part story and one that places a lead character in mortal danger, its clever, it has some great tension and when backed with the authors flamboyant writing style alongside his grasp of tactics and strong characters makes this a title that was hard to put down.

Back that up with cracking prose, some cleverly thinking and the return of an old friend with an almost Q like ability with chemicals and it's a title that really will please as well as enthuse the reader for more. Great stuff.

About the Author

John Flanagan began his working life in advertising before moving to freelance writing and script editing. He has written TV jingles and comedy-drama for television, and is one of Australia's more prolific TV writers.

John wrote the first book in The Ranger's Apprentice series to encourage his twelve-year-old son to enjoy reading. Michael was a small boy, and all his friends were bigger and stronger that he was. John wanted to show him that reading was fun, and heroes weren't necessarily big and muscular. Now in his mid-twenties, Michael is six feet tall, broad-shouldered and powerful - but he still loves The Ranger's Apprentice.

John lives in the beachside Sydney suburb of Manly.
