Search - Redwall

Redwall is my favorite of the whole series, none of the other books come close, Mossflower is the closest, but nothing can compare with the story of good vs. bad, it's almost simple but not, it's alive, I can't describe it so I'm not gonna try, so, JUST READ THE BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For the sort of book this is, I suppose it wasn't bad. The biggest flaw I found was that I just didn't feel pulled into the book, not really engaged. Perhaps it's unfair, but I keep wanting to compare books to my experience with The Golden Compass, which I absolutely loved and felt enchanted by. This book fell flat as far as that was concerned.

I also felt like it was a little predictable, at least from an adult reading perspective. Of course the evil rat Cluny can't be victorious until the end…otherwise, why would the book be so long? Each time the mice thwarted the rats plans, I felt like I could see it coming from a mile away.

A powerful tale of fantasy in the tradition of Watership Down

This is the most delightfull tale I have read in years. The first book of an equally delightfull series. The mouse apprentice monk Matthias picks up the sword of Martin the warrior and goes in defense of Redwall Abbey against the infamous rat Cluny The Scourge and his rat army.

first in the Redwall series. Wonderful for preteen and teens
