New York Times bestselling author Brian Jacques gives us another tale of Redwall, filled with “The Knights of the Round Table with paws” (The Sunday Times) along with their friends and enemies.
The murderous Rapscallion army is on the move. Pursued by Lady Cregga Rose Eyes, the Badger Lady of Salamandastron, they are heading inland to take a great prize: the peaceful Abbey of Redwall.
But the Long Patrol—that fighting unit of perilous hares—is called out to draw them off…and fight them to death if need be. And the lead sword of the Long Patrol will be taken up by the young, inexperienced hare Tammo—in one of the most ferocious battles Redwall has ever faced…

What reviewers said
“Brian Jacques has the true fantasy writer’s ability to create a wholly new and believable world.”
“The medieval world of Redwall Abbey—where gallant mouse warriors triumph over evil invaders—has truly become the stuff of legend.”
“A grand adventure story. Once the reader is hooked, there is no peace until the final page.”
“Jacques’s effortless, fast-paced narrative gets its readers quickly hooked. He clearly loves this other world he has created—there’s a genius sense of involvement and care (lots of lovingly descriptive passages), as well as an overflowing, driving imagination.”
“Redwall is both an incredible and ingratiating place, one to which readers will doubtless cheerfully return.”
“An excellent adventure with an enlightened conscience. Brilliantly complex. With vibrant and distinct animal characters, Jacques’s classically inspired plot-weaving achieves virtuosity.”
