Summary: The Best Book I've Ever Read
Review: IT IS THE BEST BOOK IN THE WORLD! I read i tin 3rd grade. I am now in 7th. I am so happy I did read it though, in fact. I am still reading all the books in the series. It is about 6th grade reading level, but anyone at any age could enjoy it! It should be on the list of one of the books a child should read before 8th grade.

Summary: An Exellent, Gripping book!
Review: Redwall is a great book, when i read it i had already read Martin the Warrior, so i had a little background. When i was reading this book every time i had a spare minute i picked it up, its a very gripping story by a good author. There is never a lull in the action and the story line just keeps bringing you back. If you like fantasy books i think this is the book for you.

Summary: Realistic, Intriguing, Larger-than-life characters
Review: The moment I finished reading this book I yearned for more. I love the way Brian Jacques made an absolutely fictional book so real that you start to think it could actually happen! After I finished this book, and all the rest, I started to compare friends and family to the characters in the book! I would reccomend this book to everyone who can read English! The most interesting thing about Redwall is how every "species" has their own accent. This book is one that I will continue to read over & over again!

Summary: Unfortunately dissapointing
Review: I am a children's librarian, and an avid reader of fantasy. From C.S. Lewis to Tolkien and L'Engle, I have enjoyed them all. When I started Redwall, I planned on an excellent read. To my dissapointment, I found it redunant, filled with superlatives, and amazingly uninteresting...there is a common sympathy for Matthias, which I found admirable, but I found it hard to turn the next page, and the next..there are authors out there with a much more distinctive style, like L'Engle or Yolen, or authors who go with the mainstream, yet shape their books with a unique point of view, like newcomer J.K. Rowling. what is surprising is the fact that there are so many books in the Redwall series. Jacques is a good author, but there is something lacking.

Summary: Best book I ever read!
Review: Redwall was defenetily the best book I ever read. It is so imaginative and fun. The book is just one huge adeventure! Brian Jacques has a imagine like no other person on earth, the only author that comes to mind that is as imaginative as Brian Jacques is Tolkien or the writer of Harry Potter. But Brian Jacques wastes them!

Summary: An exciting,well written book!
Review: A young mouse named Mathias sets out on a joutney to find the sword of Martin the Warrior.Redwall Abbey is under attack, and they need help.Cluny the Scourge is the most-feared rat of that time, and he figures that Redwall must have lots of loot and treasure stuck away.Redwallers fight back wonderfully, but how can they keep on defending it much longer? Only Mathias knows the answer. After Cluny steals the wall hanging of Martin the Warrior, the Redwallers lose hope. Mathias knows they can't keep Cluny back much longer if they don't have hope. So Mathias sets out to find Martin's sword. He has to figure out some riddles. But when he finds out where it is, it's not there! Finally he knows what happened.Someone else has stolen the sword! He sets out on a dangerous journey. His life and others depend upon it. Then he finds out it's not as easy as just going out and finding it. His final task is to kill a giant adder. The adder has stolen the sword. Will the adder get him first, or will Mathias be able to get the sword without the adder even noticing? In this story, I think it teaches you that some things aren't as easy as you might think they are.

Summary: Redwall's story is good and exquisite.
Review: My mind was very inqusitive when I first began the story over a week ago. Now one week later I finished the wonderful book! I truly recommend it.

Summary: High Average Book
Review: This book started out strong, but got boring in the middle. I recomend Salamandastron, Bellmaker, or MArtin the Warrior. (also in the redwall series)

Rating:
Summary: A memorable tale.
Review: After reading this book, I have had a hard time finding anything to read that comes anywhere near this piece of literature in overall quality. It is told so clearly, and without being slow-paced it manages to include detail and the feelings of the characters, but at the same time there is plenty of action, comic dialogue and adventure. The wording Jacques uses is pure poetry...

Summary: The best book ever written!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
