The Ranger's Apprentice takes a turn towards fantasy in this sixth Royal Ranger book. Rangers are asked to go to Celtica to investigate the appearance of a mystical wolf. The rangers believe that 99% of things can be explained through standard means, but leave 1% for the supernatural. That comes in handy here. Somebody is trying to summon a demon to go together with the wolves and other creatures in order to dominate. Will and Maddie use their mortal talents as well as some knowledge they have learned about the supernatural to defeat the enemy. The local people are shown as being much more attached to the supernatural than the more "enlightened" rangers. It continues the series mix of "historical" settings with modern world views.
