And as Will is about to learn, there is a large battle brewing. Highly trained in the skills of battle and surveillance, they fight the battles before the battles reach the people. What he doesn't yet realize is that the Rangers are the protectors of the kingdom. And now 15-year-old Will, always small for his age, has been chosen as a Ranger's apprentice. The villagers believe the Rangers practice magic that makes them invisible to ordinary people. They have always scared him in the past-the Rangers, with their dark cloaksand shadowy ways.
