This book, The Kings of Clonmel, which is the eighth book in the Ranger's Apprentice series, is definitely worth it. I am currently reading it, and enjoying it immensely. When you first glance at the book, it doesn’t look like much. Dressed in cheap costumes with cheap makeup, the kids stand wielding tiny plastic weapons and a traditional scroll-like title pasted on the bottom. White printed so-common words “the international bestselling series” displayed like a banner along the top.
The series itself is amazing.
Descriptive imagery illustrated a land of Kings, Queens, magic and monsters. Roaming
the library, my brother had recommended it to me. At a moment of “why the heck
not”, I picked the book off of the shelves and I was thrown into a world of
intrigue and danger. John Flanagan had wrote it, and I had not heard of him
before, but that didn’t matter to me. I was willing to give him a chance.
Now, on the eighth novel I have
not been let down. My enjoyment while reading it has rivaled previous novels.
It was definitely worth the wait, and though there was no hype around it I am
still so glad I took my brother’s recommendation. As far as I am aware, about
two other people that I know are reading this series, but nobody is on the
eighth book—which is the best one yet by far.
Not only will I finish this book,
but I will definitely finish the series. I cannot wait for the next one to come
out—though there will be next to nobody to share my excitement with.
