Rants, Ranting and More

Nutmeg here and I'm just letting you know that this is more of  Rant Post than anything else. This contains spoilers for The Last 13 by James Phelan, Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and Hereos of Olympus serie and Ranger's Apprentice by John Flaggan. I might also throw in some of my own therioes for Rick's new series Magus CHase and the gods of Asgard.

So where to start? The Last 13.

For those who have read this series, I recomend it. The characters you see the most are Sam (The story may revole around 13 but it's obvious that he's the main character), Eva and Alex. Now I got the last book (titled 1) a week ago. It was meant to come out in America til Today I think and Yesterday in New Zealand. In the first 8 chapters you see how wrong you were. James Phealan can be a little bit of a troll. Let's just say Soloiars is not who you think he is. And I was pretty close with my guess of the Professor. Side Note: Alex wasn't the only surriver.

Heroes of Olympus is Rick Riordan's newest series. The last book came out in October. By now most of the fandam have read Blood of Olympus. Now if you remember about this time last year I think I posted a video about what I thought would happen in Blood of Olympus. Ok my ideas were a little off track but still, some of them turned out to be correct. Nico and Reyna have their own POV. That's pretty cool. Somethings that would have made the whole ending better in my opion. Remembering that Percy has been missing since about October, wouldn't Rick just make a little chapter in Percy's POV about how he went back home and saw Sally and Paul. And What about Annabeth and her family? and Piper and her dad? And Jason and Thalia? I really want to know what happened in the family sector Rick, maybe you should write a short story about this and realse it in Magus Chase. I still love the book but the ending could be better.

Ranger's Apprentic by John Flaggan is a series about Will. He's an orphan with no last name. On the day where the wards get apprenticed to someone or get sent to work in the farms, Will is the only one who doesn't get apprenticed straight away. But the Fief's (Like a state or Region) Ranger (The policeman), Halt, does slip a piece of paper to the Baron (Like a Mayor). Will is curious. He's pretty sure it concerns him so, IF i can remember correctly, at night he sneaks into the Barons room to read the piece of paper. Lets say he's caught but he's going to be Halt's New Apprentice. Now unlike other books where the problem is solved in one book, The Ranger's Apprentice series can be split into some smaller sections
The first book, The Ruins of Gorlon, is a stand alone book.
Books 2,3 and 4 (The burning bridge, The ic bound land and Oakleaf Bearers) is Will's Skadinavain Adventure.
5 and 6 (The sorrcer of the north and seige of macindor castle) are one story. I won't contuine but it goes like that. That's all folks :)
I'll probably do another post with my therioes on Rick's new series. But for now. I've let out my steam before I have breakfast. Only 23 more days til christmas! So excited, And only like 12 school days til the end of the year@
