Mattimeo by Brian Jacques
5.0
I'm in love with this series, and this book was a gem! These stories always have so many levels, and always keep me guessing. Jacques invariably goes in an unexpected direction and I absolutely LOVE it.
The additional story of the Redwall residents fighting to keep their abbey while their heroes were away was magic. I love Cornflower and Mrs. Churchmouse, as well as all of Jacques' characters are so compelling - villains and heroes alike.
My only (slight) complaint was that I wish that Mattimeo had been a bit more of an active participant, given his role in the story (and presumably, moving forward). Very minor complaint, but it tickled a bit.
I recommend this book to all readers and fans of fiction. This is fantasy, but not over-the-top. You won't be disappointed.
