  <default_description>As the inhabitants of Redwall Abbey bask in the glorious Summer  of the Late Rose, all is quiet and peaceful. But things are not as they  seem. Cluny the Scourge, the evil one-eyed rat warlord, is hell-bent on  destroying the tranquility as he prepares to fight a bloody battle for  the ownership of Redwall. This dazzling story in the Redwall series is  packed with all the wit, wisdom, humor, and blood-curdling adventure of  the other books in the collection, but has the added bonus of taking  the reader right back to the heart and soul of Redwall Abbey and the  characters who live there. &lt;p&gt;  Magical, mystical, and the stuff of legends, this stunning tale of good  battling with--and ultimately triumphing over--evil takes the reader on  a roller-coaster adventure that barely draws breath from the first page  to the very last. Brian Jacques is a true master of his craft.  &lt;I&gt;--Susan Harrison&lt;/I&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[Brian Jacques is not particularly remarkable in his narrative tone or the plot or concepts involved in this series. Indeed, I gave this first entry three stars simply because I WANT to read something unique that takes little forest creatures and gives them wonderfully human 19th-century traits.<br/>...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/61350720">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The series as a whole gets five stars for sentimental value.  If I were reading any of the others from this series today for the first time, I might only give them three or four stars, depending on the book.  But either way, this first book is a real keeper, and is in my opinion the best of the seri...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/72364821">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[My 8 year old daughter loves this series, and in the interest of knowing what she's into (and on her recommendation) I read this. It is very well done, and I can see why Mr. Jacques has become such a phenomenon.

    <body><![CDATA[I sure did love absurd fantasy/sci-fi epics in 4th grade. Given that I kept up with this particular series well into middle school (I think <em>the Bellmaker</em> was my last), these would seem to be considerably less forgettable than whatever else I was reading around that time.<br/><br/>Things I remember...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/48846121">more...</a>]]></body>

It's been a long time since I could not put a book down, a children's book no less.<br/><br/>But don't let the genre fool you, like Harry Potter, Redwall is appropriate for any...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/59998828">more...</a>]]></body>
