--Obvious spoilers for Royal Rangers--
As you probably know, Madelyn is just about the most controversial character in the fandom because of multiple things. I'd like to know everyone's opinions about this character.
For those who don't like her, it's often because her initial personality and how it changed very quickly but I also think her character would have been hated much less if numerous other changes did not happen in Royal Ranger, which really upset most fans.
I wonder if it would also help if she was either a brand new character unrelated to the previous main characters or at least not the apprentice of Will.

Mmm, she was alright. Not particularly wonderful, but not overly annoying either. I'm personally not a huge fan of the Royal Ranger books, but not because of any specific aspect of it. They just feel a bit stale, and not because of Maddie. Sure, she's a little bit cliche and such, but at least she tries.
Also, that scene where she just about dies and Will spends all night worrying about her, then she wakes up and immediately asks what's for breakfast is very much a redeeming feature, in my opinion.

Yeah, it's understandable and I agree on the books being a little more stale nowadays. I actually thought her injury would be much more serious but by the next book it was barely even mentioned as far as I've read. Maybe I am missing something on the later pages.

It was mentioned in the books afterwards that she had a limp and probably would for the rest of her life, so it was kind of serious, though she doesn't really appear to be affected by it too much. (Though, to be fair, this is two years later, so it stands to reason that she would have learned to cope with it)
