Book SynopsisJohn Flanagan's
Ranger's Apprentice and
Brotherband adventure series have sold more than eight million copies worldwide. His books are available in more than one hundred countries, are regularly on the
New York Times bestseller lists, and have had multiple award shortlistings and wins in Australia and overseas. John, a former television and advertising writer, lives with his wife in a Sydney beachside suburb.
Trade ReviewPicking up the story soon after events in
The Invaders (2012), this engaging sequel opens aboard the
Heron as Hal, his fellow Skandians, and their friend Lydia sail up a river in search of Zavac, the ruthless pirate who has stolen a precious relic from their village. Welcome humor lessens the dramatic tension at times, and the shipmates’ individuality and comradeship make their adventures more meaningful. [This] novel provides a satisfying conclusion to the three-book cycle that opened with
The Outcasts (2011). [A] vigorous offshoot of the Ranger’s Apprentice series. * Booklist *
