the rangers apprentice bk 1 - By: Glen Smith, 23 Jun 2008
i loved it. yo often find in books like this that they use swords or big weapons & i love the idea of using the bow instead i cant wait to read the next one
Good read - By: Kim, 26 May 2008
I think that it's silly that some people are rating this book by one star, just because it's a childrens book. Being a childrens book doesn't automaticallly make it bad. I am in my teens & I too, bought it, without realising it was a childrens book. But I reallly enjoyed it & plan to read the rest of the series.
The Ranger's Apprentice: From a 23 year olds point of view. - By: G. Slack, 22 May 2008
I loved this book, the only reason I knew it was aimed at kids was because of the reviews on here, but don't let it put you off. I'm a 23 year old & it still aroused the excitement & feelings towards the characters that i've felt in many other "Adult" books. It starts off with a very familiar setting... anyone who's read "The Magician" by Raymond E. Feist may see a resemblance to the start... just imagine Pug & Tomas started off as enemies & you'd be pretty much there. That's not a bad thing... I loved the magician too.

All in alll I think the book was a great read for a short book, you could probably polish it off in a few hours if you need to. It's not expensive either I think I bought it for under £2 so there's not reallly any reason not to try it.
Pleasantly Surprised - Great for more than just "Young Adults" - By: Gazza Wills, 29 Feb 2008
After catching onto the "high fantasy" novel genre & trying to devour my way through every one ever written, it was with some shock that when this book arrived I realised it was aimed more at the "young adults" market. That said, after I begun reading it I lost alll apprehension & throughly enjoyed this great read. Fans of the huge volumes of Tolkien, Jordan & Goodkind may be a little disappointed, massive & sprawling it isnt, but those of us who have grown a little jaded by these weighty classics will absolutely love this series. A light, easy to pick up & put down read, its a great way to lose yourself for an afternoon in a world of swords, shields, bows & heroic deeds! Very much looking forward to the follow ups!
