Summary: Of all his books this is my favorite.
Review: Although I have not yet read Legend of Luke, I still think The Outcast of Redwall is his best. It was a story of true friendship entwined with one of pure hatred. Sunflash the Mace the badgerlord of Salomdastron VS Swartt Six claw warlord of a mighty horde of vermin, not to mention Swartt's lost child Veil. This book has it all friends, foes, wars, peace, joy, sadness, banquets, famine, and even some gardening. All in all this book ROCKED!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Just amazing!
Review: How does Brian Jacques continue to do it? He uses the same storyline in every single Redwall book (a little good can and will beat a lot of evil), and yet you just can't put the book down! My favorite character was the fox vixen Nightshade. She really did know a lot. If Swartt Sixclaw had only listened to what she had to say, he might have been victorious.

I really like it when a book has strong characters...on both sides of the battlefield. And this book certainly has them, Swartt Sixclaw is a convincing hoard leader, being bull-headed and stubborn. Nightshade the seer is a competant second-in-command. Sunflash the Mace is the best over-all badger lord that I've seen in any of the Redwall books, and his friend Skarlath the kestrel is the best secondary character that I've seen in any book. Veil Sixclaw, while still a great character, is a mystery, even by the end of the book, you can't figure out if he is good or evil.

I would give The Outcast of Redwall more than five stars if I could, this book is not one to be skipped over.

Summary: Outcast Of Redwall
Review: This is easily one of the best books I have ever read. The whole idea of archenemies, lost sons, ancient badgers, and massive sandstone Abbeys may sound ridiculous to some, but to me, the entire Redwall series is the best litrature I have seen. In this book, like all the others, is filled with perfect descriptive words, songs, ballads and names. Everything in it semms to fit perfectly, and it is so enthralling, I think its no small wonder I'm writing a review like this. So to all: BUY THIS BOOK.

EULALIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Summary: The Best In The Whole Series - Except For Martin The Warrior
Review: This book was one of the best I have ever read (and believe me, I have read an enormous amount). Yes, it relies heavily on the standard Jaques a-little-good-beats-alot-of-evil formula, but a wonderful twist is added in the character of Veil. Is he or is he not irredeemably evil...? His actions at the beginning of the book seem to answer the question, but as the plot unfolds his character becomes more and more complex and utterly real. This twist adds depth and realism to the book, as does the searat Blaggut in "The Bellmaker" and the corsair Romsca in "Pearls of Lutra". As for the people who disagree with the title... Veil may not have a huge number of lines, but he is pivotal. Take a close look at the end of the book to see why.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the better Redwalls
Review: This is a story of Sunflash the Mace, the missing son of Bella,and his enemy, Swartt Sixclaw (mainly), and Swartt's strengh andcunning to keeping himself alive while searching for Sunflash. It has very little to do of the outcast, especially because he got outcasted at the very end of part 2. All he really did was save a mouses life, and betrayed his father. Every chapter had something exiting, and has alot of battles unlike some other redwalls, such as Pearls of Lutra. This does not match up to Brain Jacque's novel of Redwall and Mariel of Redwall, lacking some magic it had in those books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It is awesome
Review: The book was a great book and as you read these reviews and see some 2's and 3's yet I think it was a great book and how they talk about no detail there is more detail in the first paragraph than most other books have in a chapter. Also if you check anyother book there is someone who just wants to criticize in every way they can. So read for yourself and enjoy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: this book was great!!
Review: I am only half way through this book but it is one of the best books I have ever read. It is very high paced and exciting

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: BRILLIANT! Jacques at his best.
Review: OK! So it wasn't Brian's best book. But there was all the excitment and drama of Redwall! Whoever says it wasn't very good makes me sick

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Hardcore Redwall Buffs Only
Review: I expected better from Brian Jacques! This book is slow, has no action or vivid characters, and basically, it's the worst Redwall book. I was sucked in by the description on the back cover, but nothing like that happens, and its just battles. I would say if you want to read a redwall book and you pick this up go back and reread pearls of lutra of bellmaker.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of his best!!
Review: I love this book! The begging is exiting and it just gets better. Two things I didn't like: poor Skylarth 's ending and the conclution of Veil's true personality. But ya hafta love the rest of the book!!
