The Traitor's Son (Path of the Ranger, #1)The Traitor's Son by Pedro Urvi
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Traitor’s Son is the first in the Path of the Ranger series with three books so far printed and one available for pre-order. This book starts off the series by introducing us to Lasgol, a hardened fifteen-year-old young man who is the son of The Traitor. His father betrayed the kingdom and attempted regicide. Lasgol is never allowed to forget that fact as everyone either ignores him or hates him and pushes him around. Sick of his hard life, Lasgol finally sets out to clear his fathers name since he believes deep in his heart that his father is innocent of the crimes he is accused of. Attending the prestigious School of Rangers, Lasgol knows he will be as reviled there as anywhere else, but he sees it as his only chance at redemption. But will he be able to survive?
A great start to a new series, it has an interesting backstory for our tormented Lasgol to feel sufficiently motivated. The puzzle pieces that are laid out throughout the story are interesting and the worldbuilding was great. Overall, I really liked the book and will more than likely continue the series.
