Summary: Absolutley the best series ever!
Review: If you like fanatsy then your sure to the love the Redwall series. It says ages 9-11, but let me tell you their still good at 16 and up. As for chronological order, here is how I've got mine: "Martin the Warrior", "Mossflower", "Mariel of Redwall", "The Bell Maker", "Salamandastron", "Redwall", "Mattimeo", "The Outcast of Redwall", "The Pearls of Lutra". I have yet to read "The Long Patrol".

Summary: good vs evil (a fight to the death)
Review: This book and the series are great!!! I got this book from my parents on the Christmas of 97. I couldn't put it down. I read it every day at least an hours worth, and when I was finished I read it again and again. The descriptive style of Jacques writing adds so much to the wonderful story line. I mean it is a no-brainer...you have to buy this book!!! If only you could choose six stars I would of chose six because this book is the best of the best!!! I give this book two thumbs up...in fact two thumbs up and eight fingers!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Help! I've read it and can't put it down!
Review: Okay, most of you have heard that this is the best book that so-and-so has ever read, right? Myself, I prefer the prequel, Mossflower, which I've read eight times, but Redwall is definitely high-ranking. Reflecting, I realize that I first heard of the book Outcast of Redwall, thought it sounded good, decided not to get it, and dismissed it from my mind. Too bad! Had I gotten it, I would have realized how cool the books were all the sooner! Warning, though- if you own all the books, it will take you forever to put them in chronological order. But I'm wandering. I LOVE that book because I get the feeling that I'm a future Recorder, pondering the lore of times long gone. Vivid descriptions, personalized characters that you can actually see in your mind, and mouth-watering, eye-opening descriptions make it a must-read. (Note: to all dedicated Redwall readers, Watership Down is an excellent book, too.)

Summary: Awesome...total pleasure!
Review: I totally love Redwall books. I have been collecting them since I was in 3rd grade...and even though I am an 8th grader now...it might seem kind of juvenile of me to be still reading these books, I love it anyway. The plots are great, the animals warm and kindhearted, and it's like Brian Jaques has captured us as human beings in the story by protraying who we are in real life with woodland creatures. It's always fun for me to read these books and I guess I'll always love it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Redwall is in all, a great book.
Review: Redwall is a great book in all, except for the annoyance of how slowly the story goes on. The young Redwall mouse, Matthias is trying to find a legandary sword, but how very slowly he puts the facts together and goes on. Also occuring is "the great war of Redwall Abbey." A large band of rats, stoats, and ferrets, along with other misc. animals are trying to conquer Redwall for themselves. This band is led by a power-hungry leader known as Cluny the Scourge. This long, twisting story is most intriguing. It is the perfect medivel fantasy for anyone who loves a great book.

Summary: A brave mouse with a good heart tries to save Redwall.
Review: A clumsy mouse, named Mathias tries to save his town when cluny the scourge and his rats attack. With Martin the Warriors spirit with him, he must find Martin's legendary sword.

This book is a must read!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Redwall was very thrilling and suspenseful!
Review: This is my favorite book because, I realy like the characters such as Baisil Stag Hare. There are trecgerous villians, like Asmodeus and Cluny the Scourge. Personaly I'd like to try some food from Redwall. Especialy Strawberry Cordial! The story keeps a steady pace. This book will thrill readers everywhere.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good, but Juvenile
Review: This book is quite good for those who like light fantasy. I first read this book a long time ago, I'd say around 1992. Then, I loved it. However, it is suitable for children, and only children, if you're a fantasy fan.

Jacques' plots seem to repeat, as well, throughout the series. He is like the Eddings of childrens' books--write a plot, sell it, recycle it.

If you are in search of a book for the children, or enjoy light fantasy, get this book--it is definately for you.

However, if you are looking for a book which has a more serious setting, or one for older readers, then go with Jordan, Modesitt, Tolkien, or Goodkind.

Since this book (series) seems to be very popular, I ask that you *not* flame me. This is my honest opinion, and I am not degrading Jacques' writing in any way--it is very good, for *young* readers. (Or people who don't like dark fantasy, I guess.)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A stunningly exciting tale!
Review: Excellent. The very soul of a good fantasy.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This book is good definately worth a read.
Review: This book was good. I had a good time reading a whole new world of characters. Brian Jaques is definately a good author writh a great imagination. I can't wait to start the other books
