This was decent if not outstanding, I don't think the story of this one is on the same levels as most of the others.

Gabool totally losing his shit with the Bell, and becoming somewhat unhinged did make me laugh at times and the full cast audio, as always gives the story a star on its own

Another winner in the Redwall series! I absolutely loved this book, as well as the characters (and the food!). The humor sparkled, the story clicked and the pacing was fabulous. There was quite a lot going on, which prevents me from giving the full 5-star rating, and I think a little more focus would have been nice, but it was pretty minor. This is a 4.5 star book.

Can't wait for the next one!

I recommend to all fans of fantasy, or just fiction in general, you won't be disappointed!

I have truly enjoyed all of the Redwall books so far. I find them easy to read, predictable for my age but absolutely beautiful and a welcome change of pace. I love Mariel, she is fierce, kind and wise beyond her years. She overcomes every obstacle and shines as a heroine. I cannot wait to get my kids into these! I love that these are not geared towards any gender, just adventure-seekers. Well worth the time to read I have shed a few tears throughout this series and I am sure I will shed more either from joy or sorrow.

This is the fourth in the Redwall series. The hares, badgers, mice, and other creatures face a dual mission: Protect Redwall Abbey and defeat Grabool, Lord of the Seas.

By this point in the series, I was getting pretty familiar with the Jacques 'formula', and already tired of it. This one didn't even have the redeeming feature of having a likable main character.

I do always enjoy the hares, though. They're hilarious, and the main source of enjoyment in this installment.

One of my all time favorite series! I love each and every one! A great book for young adults, and adults alike! I'm in college, and still read these, and enjoy them each! Good for animal lovers, adventures, and those who just like a good tale of good over evil!
