The Burning Bridge

Ranger's Apprentice, Book 2

De: John A. Flanagan

Narrado por: John Keating

The international best-selling series with over five million copies sold in the US alone!

For years, the Kingdom of Araluen has prospered, with the evil lord Morgarath safely behind the impassable mountains. For years, its people have felt secure. But the scheming hand of the dark lord has not been idle....

On a special mission for the rangers, Will and his friend Horace, an apprentice knight, travel to a neighboring village and discover the unsettling truth: All the villagers have either been slain or captured. Could it be that Morgarath has finally devised a plan to bring his legions over the supposedly insurmountable pass? If so, the king’s army is in imminent danger of being crushed in a fierce ambush. And Will and Horace are the only ones who can save them.

Perfect for fans of J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, T.H. White’s The Sword in the Stone, Christopher Paolini’s Eragon series, and George R. R. Martin’s Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire series.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Will's vivid world will entice fantasy readers who are drawn by the line of high adventure." (Booklist)

good

Good book but so short.. Wish they could combine them into 2 book packages. I'm going to listen to other books for now just because they last longer an give me more satisfaction for the money.

Excellent Story, mediocre narrator

i have nothing negative to say about the book itself. tons of suspense and action. the narrator was merely ok. I've heard worse, but I've heard far more better. He only has about 3 different inflections for all the different characters, which breaks the immersion sometimes. He talks normally when a character is supposed to be yelling. He talks normally when a character is fighting for breath in their dying moments. He simply got the job done. that is all.

Read as a Kid, Listening as an Adult

These books were my go to when I was a kid in school, there is so much excitement and adventure packed into an easy to digest package. After listening to lengthier Adult focused novels, I was ready to enjoy the simplicity of a Rangers Apprentice book.

Enjoyable to listen to, exciting to visualize.

Fantastic Story

This series is a favorite of my son and mine. We love to listen to them together.

It’s good

I really liked this book I recommend it to everyone in the whole entire world

Action & Adventure Throughout

This was my second time through this book and I enjoyed it as much as I did the first time. More character development, more action, and more adventure. The knights duel with Morgarath was my favorite part of this book.

Great Book the second time around!

I read this book before but hearing it read was amazing. The voices were awesomeness!

Trilling Tale!

I read this book years ago and didn’t remember much of the story, but the narrator brings so much life to the story I fell in love with it again. Halt, Will and Horace’s journey though this series really begins here as they grew into their crafts and friendships. I will never get tired of this book or series. Never. As an adult this book and series is amazing. The ending is always devastating. Leaves you wanting more.

Gets even better!

I was unsure if I would like a second book but I was proved wrong! Once I started listening I couldn’t stop it became a part of my daily routine! You will not regret this series!

Can’t go wrong

Read these books as a child, and decided to listen to it as an adult. Still a good listen
