Independent reading book

My independent reading book is The Ranger's Apprentice by John Flangan. I chose to begin reading this book because my friend introduced it to me, but I continued to read it because The Ranger's Apprentice is a battle-type of book, it is non fiction, and there is a lot of action. Also, there is a lot of suspense involved in the book, and you are always wondering what will happen next. 

Another reason I like The Ranger's Apprentice is because of the setting and time period. It takes place in the medieval time period, when people are trying to survive, and kingdoms are being built, while other kingdoms are fighting for power, land, and wealth.
