Booklist - 10/15/2018 Three years into her secret apprenticeship to Ranger Will, Maddie returns to Castle Araluen as Princess Madelyn to spend a month with her parents and her grandfather, the ailing king. But Horace, her father, soon leaves with Ranger Gilan to track down the Red Fox Clan, a renegade band seeking to overthrow the reigning monarch and revoke the law allowing women to take the throne. In Horace’s absence, it’s up to Maddie and her mother, Princess Cassandra, to defend the castle and the realm from a new threat that arises: a murderous traitor and his followers. Taking up Maddie’s story two years after the conclusion of The Royal Ranger? (2013), the novel features two capable (and frequently underestimated) women in leading roles. The fast-paced narrative moves well, shifting between the events unfolding at Araluen and the action taking place on Horace and Gilan’s quest. On both fronts, tension builds right up to the cliff-hanger on the last page, which will leave readers waiting impatiently for book three in the Ranger’s Apprentice: The Royal Ranger series. - Copyright 2018 Booklist.
