I took a very long pause in reading this book. Things had slowed down and were dire.

I started reading the second half in earnest because I ran out of renewals at the library and had a plane ride to read and reengage. 

I forgot the fine details of the first half, but it's redwall. It's all familiar and I got this book for nostalgia and to find relaxation in reading. 

Overall, if found myself enjoying the adventure and the things that used to annoy me about the series (speech patterns, songs that don't move the plot along, and feast descriptions) didn't bother me. 

I am once again surprised by the amount of good guy deaths in the book. Thought they had more plot armor.
