3.9 AVERAGE


Normally, I am opposed to series introducing villains who are tied to the world's lore, but we only hear about that lore once those villains show up. It takes you out of the story, and to lose that feeling of being in the story is often the first and biggest nail in the coffin. I do not, however, object to stories like this one, because the execution is just excellent. The characters and world feel distinct and fresh, and the new villains introduced are fantastic, especially in their powers and relationships to each other. The plot is unique even though it does tread some similar ground as books past. This book is made in its execution.

Marlfox by Brian Jacques – I just really loved the word Marlfox (language nerds don’t need reasons do they?) Enjoy the adventure! Happy Reading!

Another childhood favorite series. Brian Jacques makes food sexy.

2.5 stars.

A fairly lackluster Redwall - very reminiscent in plot and characters of a fair amount of other Redwall books, which detracted from my enjoyment a bit. It's been a few years since I've read one, but this one didn't really strike my fancy all too much. I hope it was just slightly duddy and not that I've outgrown the series.

Love this one.

AWWW!!! Like, my FAVorite Redwall book next to the first one!
