They are outcasts. Hal, Stig, and the others - they are the boys the others want no part of. Skandians, as any reader of Ranger's Apprentice could tell you, are known for their size and strength. Not these boys. Yet that doesn't mean they don't have skills. And courage - which they will need every ounce of to do battle at sea against the other bands, the Wolves and the Sharks, in the ultimate race. The icy waters make for a treacherous playing field . . . especially when not everyone thinks of it as playing.

John Flanagan, author of the international phenomenon Ranger's Apprentice, creates a new cast of characters to populate his world of Skandians and Araluens, a world millions of young readers around the world have come to know and admire. Full of seafaring adventures and epic battles, Book 1 of The Brotherband Chronicles is sure to thrill readers of Ranger's Apprentice while enticing a whole new generation just now discovering the books.

John Flanagan grew up in Sydney, Australia. Hoping to be a writer, and after a successful career in advertising and television, he began writing a series of short stories for his son in order to encourage him to read. Those stories would eventually become The Ruins of Gorlan, the first book of the Ranger’s Apprentice epic. Together with his companion series, Brotherband Chronicles, John Flanagan’s novels have sold millions of copies and made readers of kids all over the world. Mr. Flanagan lives in the suburb of Manly, Australia, with his wife. In addition to their son, they have two grown daughters and four grandsons.

John Keating's numerous acting credits include Roundabout Theatre’s production of Juno and the Paycock, as well as various parts with the Irish Repertory Theater and the Irish Arts Center.
