Publisher's summary

International best-selling author John Flanagan returns to world of Ranger's Apprentice in the fourth installment of the Royal Ranger series starring Maddie, Will Treaty's fearless young apprentice.

Will Treaty and his apprentice, Maddie, have been urgently summoned to Castle Araluen. When they arrive they learn a shocking truth: the prince of Gallica is missing - and the king of Gallica has asked for help. All reports suggest that the young prince has been taken prisoner by the dangerous and powerful Baron Joubert de Lassigny. King Duncan knows that sending troops to Gallica to rescue the prince could start a war, as could openly helping Gallica resolve internal convict. But there's another way to save the prince: the Ranger Corps.

Soon, Will and Maddie are on the road to rescue the missing prince, disguised as father and daughter jongleurs. Maddie will have to use her knife-throwing skills to keep up her disguise, and her ranger's apprentice training to complete the mission. But going undercover is dangerous - and the road presents its own hazards. Can she and Will use all their talents to save the prince, or will the arrogant Baron uncover their plans and put their lives, and their kingdom, at risk?

Internationally best-selling author of the Ranger's Apprentice and Brotherband series, John Flanagan returns in the captivating next installment of the Royal Ranger series: The Royal Ranger: The Missing Prince. Perfect for fans of J.R.R. Tolkien, Brian Jacques's Redwall, and George R.R. Martin's Game of Thrones!

Praise for The Missing Prince:

"Flanagan builds suspense with well-practiced skill.... Tension increases right up to the last page." (Booklist)

Great book!

Another great book! Since reading to the original rangers apprentice books as a kid, I haven’t been able to keep up with the series. This new series has been great for me to get back into it.

John Flanagan has done it again!

I am amazed at how quickly these great stories and books are made. Compared to most other authors I listen to your books and read them the most and is number 1 on my preorder list! I share your books with everyone I meet my entire family enjoys your books and most anyone I share them with does as well! Keep up the great work!

Entertaining, but not Flannagan's best

Good, but certainly not his best work. Performance was excellent from the narrator, as usual on this series, but the story was not as tight and robust as his other works.

Cliff hanger 👎🏾

I love these books have been reading them since I was young. Not a fan of the new style cliff hanger at the end. Amazing story amazing plot but then left wanting which I guess is the point but come on... still getting the next one lol

It’s great, but can’t the books be longer?

Sure would love to see longer story arcs or less time between releases! Love all the series, hard to wait for the next one.

Disappointed

I really enjoyed the Rangers Apprentice series and the Brother Band series and thought this would be another great series. However I am not happy with the endings being carried over into the next book. When I finish a book I don’t want to feel that I “have” to buy the next one rather I would like to “want” to buy it.

My son loved it

John Keeting is an accomplished narrator. He brings the book alive. The interaction between Madrid and Will is delightful. Most memorable moment....the interaction between Maddie and the beggar...
