About this audiobook

New York Times best-selling author Brian Jacques has millions of copies of his phenomenally popular Redwall series in print. Fans cannot get enough of the feasting, fighting, and fantastic adventures that fill every book. A horrifying creature has landed on the shores of Mossflower country,Gulo the Savage, a wolverine who is known to devour his enemies' flesh. Gulo intends to kill his brother and seize a mighty relic known as the Walking Stone. But standing in Gulo's way is Redwall Abbey and a mercenary squirrel named Rakkety Tam MacBurl. Soon, the Mossflower woods are ringing with the glorious sound of battlecries, as an epic battle that tests the bonds of comradeship begins. Thanks to the extraordinary vocal talents of a full cast of accomplished performers, joined by the author himself, each wondrous character is fully brought to life, and Rakkety Tam becomes a riveting listening experience that is not easily forgotten.

    Ah've been robbed 'o mah sleep since taken tae reading Jacques tales of Redwall, at the request of mah daughters and their wee little brother, who--although he is just learning to read--loves tae listen to the taped editions.This particular book made me laugh and brought a tear to my eye, wot?One becomes easily attached to the characters who are so well described and given human qualities, which are fine in the good-beasts and terrible in the vermin. I find hints of myself and people I have known in the characters--good and bad.Perhaps the world would be a sight better if animals could talk, and a good scoff in the Abbey with all the Redwallers would suit me fine; however, as Melanda says at the end: we can join them anytime in our imaginations.

    I just like doing the Scottish accent when I read this and other Redwall books to my family.

    This is my first Redwall novel. My daughter had loved the series when she was young, but I never got around to reading one. Now I have and I enjoyed it very much. Normally the dialects would have made me nuts, but these didn't bother and I found the characters very believable, in a fantasy sort of way. The adventure moved along at a fine pace, only the songs slowing it down, but those were easy to skim or skip. They were perfectly fine songs, my mood was wrong for them though. I can see how a reader could get caught up in this world, but I think that for myself, one book was enough.
