What's your favorite Brotherband book and why?

"Now for wrath, now for ruin, and a red dawn!" Theoden, Lord of the Rings.

"They say there are two ways to be fooled...One way is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe what is." Viggo Grimborn, Dragons: Race to the Edge.

Grimmel: "I've hunted down every Nightfury, except yours. Hand him over!"

Hiccup: "I'll never give him up!"

Grimmel: "Then I'll destroy everything you love. You're nothing without your dragon."

I'm actually only on book 6 right now but they're all really good so far, so if you haven't read them you should probably at least look into them a bit. (You might like 'em since you like Ranger's Apprentice)

I like Scorpion Mountain best. Not exactly sure why, I guess it's cause the assassins appeal to my curiosity.
Second favourite would be The Caldera. I like meeting Stig's dad, even if he isn't very nice.

"No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgement, you shall condemn. This is the Heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from me." says the Lord.
Isaiah 54:17

"I, the Lord, have called you in righteousness. I will take hold of your hand and will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the gentiles."
Isaiah 42:6

That's interesting. The Outcasts is probably my least favourite. (Which isn't saying much as it's still in my top twenty books)

My biggest problem is that nothing ever goes against them and when it does, it isn't that big of a deal.

Ok. Don't you find that the same thing happens in Ranger's Apprentice? I personally don't mind but that might just be due to loyalty and the fact that I'm not exactly normal.
I think the general idea to Brotherband is that everyone is skeptical of their skill because they're younger and fewer than a standard wolfship's crew, but they don't let that get in the way of accomplishing whatever they want. The moral is sound but it wouldn't really work if they failed their tasks. John Flanagan didn't just write his books to be entertaining, (though they are) he wrote them to teach the readers that they can make an impact on the world if they put the effort in.
