I was skeptical of a new spin off series, particularly since I love the Skandians so much, but this has been really good. A little slower that the Ranger’s Apprentice books, more like a slice of life for the boys growing up in Hallasholm. It reminds me of Horace’s training in Battle School. This book is focused on the Skandian equivalent, so it has a similar feel to if we had followed Horace instead of Will.
