The Burning Bridge

De: John Flanagan

Narrado por: William Zappa

For years, the Kingdom of Araluen has prospered, with the evil Lord Morgarath safely behind the impassable mountains. But the scheming hand of the dark lord has not been idle…

When Will and his friend Horace, an apprentice knight, travel to a neighbouring village, they discover the unsettling truth. Could it be that Morgarath has finally devised a plan to bring his legions over the mountains? If so, the king’s army is in imminent danger of being crushed – and Will and Horace are the only ones who can save them.

Enjoyed the story

If you could sum up The Burning Bridge in three words, what would they be?

A fun adventure with charming young folks. It was fun to see the young apprentice grow in capability and daring. The young princess was courageous also.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I liked Will, because he started with so little in the way of stature, birth and schooling; but managed to develop strength and skill against all odds.

What about William Zappa’s performance did you like?

He read the story like a story, and kept me involved.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

A David and Goliath film, and a trio of young adventurers similar to Harry Potter, Ron and Hermione.

Any additional comments?

fun read.

Even better than the first book

Our obsession with Rangers continues. My boys love the books. Makes for a quiet car trip. This book ramped up the excitement and suspense - can't wait to download the next one.
