4-6Ranger's Apprentice series.
Will, an orphan, is apprenticed to the taciturn Ranger Halt. His childhood rival Horace is training at the elite Battleschool. Unbeknownst to either, an ancient foe prepares to strike their kingdom, launching an epic struggle--and a series that begins promisingly with this crisply written adventure.
