I struggled a bit. Had a read this 20 years ago, I would've liked it more, but even then I don't think I would've been terribly impressed. It's alright, and I don't think it has aged gracefully. But, young fans of fantasy will surely find…

Such a great start to the beloved series. I re-read Redwall the same way some people re-read Harry Potter or other childhood favorites. The characters are lovable, the setting is charming, and the pacing of action is perfect. The only…
Not my favorite "Redwall" book, but it does set the stage for Jacques to begin building this fantastic universe. The cast of characters include the endearing, the zany, and the heroic, with several appearing in other books. You can almost…

"It was the start of the Summer of the Late Rose. Mossflower country shimmered...." I still remember these words more than 25 years after reading them for the first time. They are the beginning of one of the best YA series I have ever…
This is my second read of Redwall. I read the first one in 2013, but was drawn to it again as comfort food during the hot mess that is 2020. I adore books with little animals as characters.
I plan on reading the rest of the series this…

To do NOT like this book. It is so predictable! The story is how Cluny is going to kill them all, so the mouse has to go and find the sword so he can kill him. It was so obvious that this was going to happen! I did not enjoy the novel at…

I listened to this book in the car with my family, Mom, Dad, and my 4 sisters. I enjoyed how methuselah is joking with Matthias and Constance at the dinner table. What challenged me was how Methuselah was always so kind and how he…

This was a very exciting book for my kids. I have 2 girls and I wasn't sure if they'd enjoy it because there is a lot of action, strategy, lore and mystery in this novel. It was a very well loved story filled with heroics by "boy" and…

First of all, I love this whole series. That said, I find Redwall (the first book) somewhat lacking in the charm that characterizes the other books of the series. It's also fairly violent, more so then some of the other books. …

This is definitely one of my favorite books of all time. While I enjoy the whole series, there's something special about this one, and honestly, part of it is because the world wasn't fully developed yet, and so the book was written…
