About this Item

First hardback editions of Flanagan's popular medieval fantasy series, also the first American editions, following their publications in paperback in Australia. The series won numerous awards, sold millions of copies internationally, and spent 81 weeks on the New York Times list of bestselling children's series. Philomel's president Michael Green stated that, on reading the first draft of The Ruins of Gorlan, "I knew in my gut that I was reading something special. John has a unique ability to create both world and characters that feel real, yet touch the edge of the fantastic, to the point that everything is completely believable and nothing is so far-fetched that it feels like pure fantasy" (cited in Lodge). Sally Lodge, "John Flanagan Adds to Ranger's Apprentice and Launches New Series", Publisher's Weekly, 13 Oct. 2011. Together, 12 works, octavo. Original boards with spine lettering in various colours. With dust jackets. Bumps to ends and corners, as often, crease and closed tear to terminal blank of The Battle for Skandia, all contents clean; bright, unclipped jackets with occasional creasing: a near-fine set in fine jackets.
