Rating: Summary: JACQUES IS NOT SLOWING DOWN!! NOT AT ALL!!!!! Review: Now, how can one create FOURTEEN novels, each using the same setting, land, & traditions, and NOT make it like a boring math class?? I dunno, but I DO know this: fourteen is not the limit.This, the 15th Redwall sega is-by far-the most descriptive & rich Redwall novel to date. There is never a flaw in Jacques's character set. You know quite a bunch about what each character is about. Which kinda helps, since this one has one of the larger casts in Redwall history. In the first, 50-or-so pages, you will be introduced to three main stories. Sagax, Scarum, & Kroova sneaking away, a peaceful springtime back at the Abbey, and Triss with friends Drufo, Shogg, & Welfo with things looking a tad grim in their slave lives. Each one, until about page 300, is completely independant of the other. However, like every other novel, Jacques spins them all up in the end, creating a truely awesome climax. Become a Redwall maniac! Its the best series on earth!!! A MUST... FOR ANYONE WHO LIKES BOOKS!!! HECK, EVEN IF YOU DON'T!!
Rating: Summary: Redwall.. another great visit. Review: Of course I haven't read this yet, but I am confident that it will be another fantastic read. I love trips to Redwall. Brian Jacques creates excellent and exciting characters who seem to find themselves in difficult situations and then triumph over the bad guys.... this is fairly consistent with each of the stories. The characters involved make it interesting each time.Each story has its own challenges and its own family of characters.
Rating: Summary: Jacques' Triss will be a Hit with Redwall Fans Review: Once again, the world of Redwall comes alive in this fifteenth masterpiece of the series. Triss, Shogg and Welfo escape from Riftguard, the palace of the evil pure ferrets, where they were enslaved. At the same time, Sagax, a badger, and his friend, Scarum the hare, run away from Salamandastron, the renowned mountain of the badger lords. They travel with their sea otter friend Kroova. Triss and her friends are pursued by the ferret, Princess Kurda, her ratguards and a pack of Freebooters. Meanwhile, back at Redwall Abbey, the residents are trying to locate Brockhall, another ancient home of the badgers, in Mossflower Woods. The classical Redwall fight of good versus evil accounts for a fair amount of the saga. Of course, Liverpudlians are an extremely comical group of people, and Brian Jacques is no exception. Scarum, who loves to constantly scoff food, and the other hares in the story, provide much of the wit in the book. Fans who loved Taggerung, the fourteenth Redwall book, and are expecting a tale as fabulous as it will have most of their expectations met. Triss will delight fans and newcomers, young and old alike!
Rating: Summary: Very good Review: One of the best books I have ever read. The Redwall series is great. Brian Jauces is a genius. The books keep getting better and better. Some of them are hard to get into, but get great later.
Rating: Summary: Triss Review: only 2 words 2 describe this book 4 u: ABSOBALLYLUTELY DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (wot wot)!
Rating: Summary: I love this book! Review: Personally, I thought Triss was one of the best Redwall books yet. I liked it much better than I did Taggerung. The story was great, as were the characters. Princess Kurda is my favorite villian, with Tsarmina from Mossflower coming in a close second. Definitely worth the time to read!

Rating: Summary: A great book, one of the best Redwall's Review: This book is about a slave squirrelmaid, Triss, who escapes her slavery (at Riftgard) with two other slaves, Shogg, the otter, and a molemaid, Welfo. They are just trying to escape fully so that someday they can go back and free all the rest of the slaves. And then, at Salamandastron, the badger lord's son, Sagax, a warrior rabbit's son, Scarum, and a seaotter, Kroova, want to go on an adventure. They decide to try and find Redwall Abbey. At Redwall Abbey, two Dibbuns (babies) 'escape' and go into the forest, and discover the long lost Brockhall ( the most ancient hall of the badger lords). Unfortunately, it is inhabited by three snakes (adders). Meanwhile, the princess ferret, Kurda, wants to go find the escaped slaves who stole her fathers ship. Her brother, Bladd, goes with her (though he doesn't want to), with a bunch of Ratguards, as well as a shipfull of Freebooters, led by a silver fox.
Rating: Summary: Brian Jacques jolly does it again, wot! Review: This book is awesome. It akes place many, many seasons after Taggerung, and Russano the wise is the 5th grandsire of one of the books characters. It starts at Riftgard, where Triss the squirrel, Welfo the hedgehog, and Shogg the otter escape from the claws of King Agarnu and his two children, Prince Bladd and Princess Kurda. Meanwhile, at Redwall Abbey, two dibbuns, members of Dibbuns Against Bedtime, escape and stumble across the ancient entrance of Brockhall. At the mountain of Salamandastron, Sagaxus the badger and Bescarum the hare run away from Redwall with Kroova the sea otter and set off for Redwall Abbey by boat. A tale of mystery, adventure, sadness, and humor(Bescarum eats all food in sight, tries to go after a shark, and whatnot), Brian Jacques writes another great tale.
Rating: Summary: Superb, Fasinating, just delightful(13 year old obsesionist) Review: This book was simply one of the best in the series. Some slow parts but are interesting. It keeps you rivited untill the very end. If you have not read it now is the time. I have read every single book and now am preceeding to read them over again. I usually check them out of the (Cabrillo) school library but this one was too good. Definatly the best. Pro's: 1. lots of action 2. juicy plot 3. interesting setting Con's: There are none!
