In "The Ruins of Gorlan," the first book of the Ranger's Apprentice series by John Flanagan, we follow the story of Will, a young orphan living in the kingdom of Araluen. Desperate to become a knight, Will learns instead that he has been chosen to be a Ranger’s apprentice. As he trains under the enigmatic Halt, Will discovers the skills of stealth, tracking, and archery. When an evil warlord threatens the kingdom, Will must embrace his new identity and skills to protect his home and friends. Along the way, he finds courage and camaraderie, setting the stage for his heroic journey. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
