Summary: AWSOME!!!!!!!
Review: This has got to be one the best books ever. The only book better is the vile village by lemony snicket. It starts off somewhat boring but don't worry it gets better. There is even a war but not as bad as the Lord of The Rings. It's great for building vocabulary and is a great book overall. This book is somewhat expensive but it is most definetly worth it. I'd give it 5 thumbs up if I had 5 thumbs.

Summary: EXCELLENT!!! 5 STARS!!! REDWAAALL!!!
Review: This is a great book. I always sort of ignored the REdwall series but when it was recomended to me, and it was supposed to be very good, I read Redwall, the first one. This bookis just packed with events and plots. Action! Adventure! Sword Fighting! Bad Guys! Battles! A Deadly Snake! Even though it kind of starts out slow in the beginning, DON'T STOP READING IT!!! It's about an evil rat named Cluny the Scourge, who wants Redwall, which is an Abbey, home of many woodland creatures and is surrounded by a red wall. When the Abbot of Redwall refuses to give Cluny Redwall, Cluny gets very angry. He gets a huge army and they start attacking Redwall. Redwall has an advantage and a disadvantage. Their advantage is that they have a badger named Constance who is very strong and kills many rats. Their disadvantage is that they don't have swords like Cluny's army, they have wooden staffs that don't do much damage to the rats. Matthias, who is just a mouse, knows that he will need Martin the Warrior's sword, who is a great mouse that protected Redwall long before and all of Redwall adores him. Matthias's friend, Methuselah, finds a riddle on a wall. It tells Matthias that to get the case for the sword, then he has to go through this secret passage. There, he finds another riddle, if I remember correctly, telling him how to get the actual sword. Soon, Matthias is sent on a wild adventure, facing many dangers, trying to get Martin's sword. This book is now my favorite book and that's saying a lot, because I've read many of them. If you are making the mistake that I made (ignoring the Redwall series), then you should buy this book. It is just so good that I can't put how excellent it is in words. A great read and an excellent start to the Redwall series.

Summary: Good, but not as good as others
Review: I like the Redwall series. I have all of them sitting on my shelf and I've read all of them 2 or 3 times. As the first book in the series, you can tell that Brian Jacques is still creating the world of Redwall Abbey. One can see markings of humans - a church, horse and cart, stuff like that - that doesn't appear in the rest of the series.Although it lacks some in comparison to other Redwall books, I still recommend reading this one first, and the others in the order they were published.

Summary: Fight fight inner light!
Review: Here's something I believed prior to reading the book "Redwall". In the fantasy literature genre of juvenile books boys enjoy, writers tend to have a great deal of difficulty writing strong female characters. Just look at C.S. Lewis's "The Narnia Chronicles", where women are not allowed to fight, for example. Normally, such books will contain a single strong female character and that's the end of that. There's one in Lloyd Alexander's books, one in the "Wrinkle in Time" books, one in "The Lord of the Rings" books, one in the "Harry Potter" books, etc. That said, imagine my surprise and delight when I discovered "Redwall". The story of a small mouse defending his Abbey has become a modern classic. And how many female warriors are in this book? I honestly can't say because they FILL the pages of this rightly popular series. Where else can you say that? Boys love the "Redwall" books, and for good reason. These readable little gems of fiction are packed with beautiful language, images, and prose that teach without seeming to. Want your kid to learn words like "tranquility" and "sibilant"? Want them to be interested in something that takes violence and war with an attitude that isn't flip or offhand? Want them to be entranced by fine storytelling? Finally, do YOU want to read something yourself that draws heavily on British culture and traditions without falling into remarkably dull passages for pages at a time? If so, I recommend "Redwall" wholly and without hesitation. And with its books being cranked out regularly by Mr. Jacques, I'm happy to say that there will be more and more of these beauties as time goes by.

Summary: Great Book
Review: I loved Redwall. This book was a heartwarming tale about th peaceful creatures of Redwall Abbey defending themselves from an evil rat lord. The strategic planning and surprises of the book are great. I look forward to more Jacques books in the future. I am on Mattimeo right now, and although the plots follow the same pattern, they are still great books. If you read them more pages at a time they are even better. I hope this review was hslpful to you.

Summary: The Great Book of Redwall
Review: I liked Redwall written by Brian Jacques. It is a great book about a young mouse named Matthias that grows up to be a warrior like the legendary Martin the Warrior. He lives in Redwall abbey, which is now under attack by the fearsome Cluny. The abbey learns to unite itself in order to save their peaceful home. Matthias learns the art of war as he leads the defenders while trying to find Martin's sword. If found, the sword could help save the abbey from destruction. I hope you will take the opportunity to read this book. It is a great book that shows how individuals can unite for the common good, as well as being a great book for just reading.

Summary: Redwall Rocks!
Review: The Redwall books are amazing. There are 15 300+ page books, enough to make even the most voracious reader busy. They tell the story of an Abbey of mice and woodland creatures and their struggles with the powers of the evil vermin. The stories range from adventure to action to romance to mystery to epic. If you read them, than tell other people about them. They lost a lot of publicity because of Harry Potter. They are some of the best books I have ever read. I LOVE THEM 999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999 TIMES MORE THAN HARRY POTTER! READ THEM OR MISS OUT ON THESE PERFECT BOOKS!
