So it has come to my attention that I am not the only person on the shard who likes John Flanagon and because he is one of my favorite non-sanderson authors I figured he needed a thread. If you have not read John Flanagan I recommend you start with the ruins of gorlan because nothing else is going to make sense.

If you have read John Flanagan I want to know:

  1.  Faviorite book?
  2. Ranger's Apprentince or Brotherband?
  3. Faviorite character?

I've read Ranger's Apprentice, but it's been a while and I don't remember much. I think that series inspired one of my RP characters, though. Her name's Mania and she's a murderess and kills by stabbing someone behind the lower jaw, up into their mouth. Is there a character who does that? If I remember correctly, the character is some sort of witch or siren and has long, sharp nails, and almost attacks the protagonist. Am I thinking of the right book?

Nope. I can't think of anything quite so gruesome in Ranger's Apprentince.

John Flanagan is AMAZING and I'm so glad this exists now.

  1. Halt's Peril
  2. Ranger's Apprentice
  3. Alyss or Princess Maddie

Read as a child, love the books, return to them time and again, have them in different languages so I can learn.

1. Favourite would be Ruins of Gorlan. I just enjoy the early book coming-of-age feel.

2. Ranger's Apprentice hands down.

3. Halt, for sure.

Any chance you're thinking of The Wardstone Chronicles here? Sounds like a Water Witch, which the protagonist, Spook's apprentice Tom Ward, has to fight off at some point.

Water Witch sounds right, but I don't remember reading anything called The Wardstone Chronicles... Do you mind telling me more about them? It's possible that I just forgot the title, wouldn't be the first time! :lol:
