Summary: Looks can be Decieving
Review: Last year my friend started reading a book called Redwall, and she told me it was the best book she had ever read. I didn't care much for the cover, besides being a very dog-eared old library book it showed a mouse standing on a wall and holding a sword, with a crowd of big ugly rats down below. I was also very disappointed in the book itself. How can you write a four-hundred page book on a group of talking mice and their peaceful but boring lives? I was amazed that they could find so many compliments to put on the back cover. But this year, when I found it on a cart in the library I tried reading it again and I finally got hooked, when I read about Cluny the Scourge's plans for capturing Redwall Abbey, the kingdom of the sparrows, the riddle of Martin the Warrior, and the dreaded snake, Asmodeuss. Now I am looking for the second Redwall book, and I hope it will be as good as the first. I recommend this book to anybody who likes animals and fantasy!

Summary: The Best Book Ever
Review: Redwall is about a young mouse who lives in a fort with his fellow mice. When a rat and his army of rats challenge the fort, it is up to Mathias the young mouse to save the day. Even though the book is slow at the beginning it is a good book.

Summary: Standard Of Excellence
Review: I'm a 14 year old, average game playing, school going student. Also, regrettably, never got into reading very much. Only the forced book reports at school, (although even those i kinda skipped through) but this is the first book that ever truly hooked me, and kept me reading from afternoon to the wee hours of the morning. If you are remotely into fantasy, i strongly reccomend looking into this book. Espcially, any parants looking for a book to inspire a child to read. This one worked for me. Best of all, its a long series of books, and they'll want to read every one of them. Of this i'm sure.

Summary: Very Good Read
Review: This is one the best books I have read so far in the Redwall series. I have Read about 6 of them and this is the best one. Mossflower is very good too. A good read for 9-11 year olds. The Redwall series are very well written and thought about. So go buy this one.

Summary: An exciting book
Review: I think it is a funny book because there are lots of different and strange things that happen with mice fighting rats and ferrets.
The bit I like about it was when they were fighting Cluny the Scourge, some of the bad guys climbed up a tree and some of them dug a tunnel underground. The bad guys that dug a tunnel got squashed because of the moles jumping on the tunnel

Summary: Underrated
Review: This book was suggested to me as a fantasy book without the (...) that comes with Harry Potter. It really is great, but not really for bedtime reading for children, I wouldn't think. It's just because it's about war, and some of the imagery is not the kind of thing your kids ought to sleep on.
The first that I read is "Mossflower" that I got at the library. AFter that I went to the bookstore to find it. Had I seen the paperback version first, I would never have read it. They market it like a sword and sorcery book. It's got lots of sword, but none of the witchie-poo nonsense. Great stuff! I'm hooked for the rest of the series.

Summary: Wonderful Story!
Review: It is a very good book!Being an animal lover, I picked this book from my school library,and started reading it.The book was well written,but I didn't expect to be reading sound effects every few chapters.The descriptions were detailed,but somewhat graphic.Anyone who liked the novel 'Harry Potter' will love this one.The morality is way too strong,though.(Think 'Lion,Witch and Wardrobe),but at the same time inspirational and reassuring

Summary: WOW!!!!!!!!!!
Review: Redwall, the first of the series, is one of the best!
It tells a story about a novice named Matthias, who becomes a warrior.
The story starts when the evil rat warlord named Cluny the Scourge comes to Redwall abbey. And his intensions are gruesome. Cluny first started with four hundred rats. Then he added ferrets, weasels, and stoats! Matthias knows that he must find the legendary sword of Martin the Warrior!
This book is magic! You can't put it down! I thought it must of been almost impossable to find the sword of Martin with so many riddles there are in this book, Matthias proved me wrong!

Review: I got this book from a garage sale (I despise the people who sold it; I never will)
I am a good reader, and am constantly looking for books. This series was recommeneded to me by a friend, but in the library it was completely checked out. That obviously meant people wanted to read it (it's not the kind for a book-report assignment), so the second I saw it I bought it. I finished it in two days (a record over my reading of Harry Potter) but read it over and over again. Then when I went on holiday I took it with me. It was one of the two english books I had with me. I read it six times.
The plot-line of this book is amazing. It doesn't lag or speed, when it's sad you cry (at least I did) and when it's happy you smile. Brian Jaques (did you know it's said Jakes?) keeps you in the palm of his hand, until the very end.
The only noticeable bad thing in this book is that the good characters are REALLY, REALLY good, and the bad ones are HORRID. Otherwise, this book is perfect.I also recommend this book to the people who would rather play nintendo, or whatever, rather than read. This book is gripping, and has more action than any nintendo game.The descriptions are so good you don't have to strain your mind to visualise the scenes. Also, this book has many Wordmaster words -8th grade-(something that other reviewers complained about, I noticed) which I have learned partly by rereading this book.
Good luck and read this book!!!! Also read the rest of the series, and THE GOLDEN COMPASS and SABRIEL
