Summary: Fun, but not that exciting, but still a good book to read!
Review: This is not one of my favorite books in the Redwall Abbey, mainly because the main character is a female. I prefer male main characters. However, I enjoyed this book too, and it was fun to read.
In this book, Mariel is a mousemaid who gets thrown overboard when captured by the enemy, Gabool the Wild. (He is a searat) Mariel gets washed ashore, and forgets everything about herself-even her name! She calls herself as Storm, and her rope as Gullwhacker, and comes to the Redwall Abbey. After staying for a few days, she goes away from the Abbey with Dandin to search for her father, Joseph the Bellmaker.
This book is exciting, especially the part where Dandin finds Mariel's father. I felt so excited that part! This book was quite fun!

Summary: The best in the best series I've ever read
Review: When Storm Gullwhacker, as she names herself, washes up on a beach from a storm, she has no memory of who she was or how she came to be stranded on a toad-infested, desert-like beach. A patrol of hares from the mountian fortress of Salamadastron find her trying to take on almost the entire toad army at once, and, after helping her, send her off to Redwall Abbey. There she remebers who she is and how an evil searat named Gabool the Wild flung her into the ocean. "Storm" leaves with some friends for revenge, but, as it turns out, Redwall starts being attacked once they leave! I can think of nothing better I like doing than sitting there re-reading all the Redwall books, and out of all of them out as of June 2001, 'Mariel of Redwall' is my firm favorite. Skillfully written by Brian Jacques, a simply wonderful brittish author, there's nothing more you could want from a book. I can't put into words how great this book is.

Summary: Another Excellant Book
Review: Mariel of Redwall is the fourth book in Brian Jacques' Redwall series, and it is one of the best. In this epic tale, a young mousemaid named Mariel is captured by an evil searat named Gabool the wild while her and her father, Joseph the Bellmaker, are delivering a bell to Salamandastron. After nearly getting Gabool killed, Mariel is tied to a wooden spar and thrown into the stormy seas. When she washes up on far away shores she can't remember who she is or where she came from. She then travels to Redwall Abbey where her memory is restored and she sets out to slay her arch enemy, Gabool the Wild. This is a wonderful book full of adventure, feasts, riddles, and even romance. If you are a fan of Brian Jacques, this is a book that you won't want to miss.

Summary: Go Mariel
Review: This is one of my favourite books in the series. The storyline is very interesting. Mariel, on her way to deliver a bell to Salamandastron, home of badger Lord Rawnblade, with her father Joseph the Bellmaker, is attacked by a searat ship. She is taken to an island called Terramort where she attacks the leader, Gabool the Wild, and is thrown into the sea. She is washed up on the shore, with no memory, but a will to survive and a knotted rope. She calls herself Storm, and the rope Gullwhacker. She is found by hares of the Long Patrol, and is shown the way to Redwall Abbey, where she makes lots of friends. One of them, called Saxtus, recites a poem which leads her to remember who she is. She then sneaks out of Redwall two days later, with a poem which tells her where Terramort is. Her best friends Dandin, Durry Quill and Tarquin come with her. Unknown to them, however, the searats have had a falling out and one of them, called Greypatch, has run off with a ship and 100 rats. He finds Redwall and attacks it. Mariel and her friends have some adventures along the way to the coast, where they find a swallow which points north because it is like a compass. They find a shipcalled Greenfang as well and sail towards Terramort. Greenfang is burnt from a battle, so a searat ship accidentally breaks the ship up and capture Dandin and Durry. Mariel and Tarquin are found floating about by the Lord Rawnblade. They meet up with Dandin and Durry on Terramort, in a secret cave where a gang of freed slaves live. They call themselves Trag and their leader is Joseph the Bellmaker. They attack the castle on Terramort and win the day when Gabool is killed by a scorpion called Skrabblag. They take the bell away and Joseph offers to take it to Salamandastron where it was supposed to go. But Rawnblade says it must go to Redwall because the spirit of Martin the Warrior saved his life. They agree and go to Redwall, where the rat Greypatch and his crew have been defeated by the Redwallers and some hares of the Long Patrol. The bell is called the Joseph Bell ad hangs in Redwall Abbey for many years. I liked this book because it has a female centre character who isn't afraid to get stuck into a fight and beat the heck out of the baddies. Martin the Warrior is important as well because he looks after the heroes and scares the baddies which I thought was really a good idea because then the heroes are sure to win.
