The Siege of Macindaw is book number six in the Ranger’s Aprentice series that John Flanagan an Australian author wrote. This book is also published by Random House Australia Pty Ltd and the book’s ISBN is 978 1 74166 134 7.

Will Treaty is planning to break his friend Alyss out of the Macindaw Castle, as she is being held as some sort of prisoner or hostage there. But he needs help to get her out and in come the same Skandians he had met at Seacliff. And they agree to help him. Will also learns that John Buttle who was the wounded dog that he found owner had also escaped them and Will discovers that he had joined up with Keren. 

Will then discovers the plot that Keren had planned with the Scotti, but with the help of Malcom they begin to sabotage their plans. Horace is also there to help, and Will comes up with an idea to build a contraption that reminded me of the wooden horse of Troy. As although he didn’t plan to build a replica of the wooden horse his idea had a similar effect that the wooden horse had.

    I have just remembered that the wooden horse of Troy is known as the Trojan Horse.
