Summary: Mossflower by Brian Jaques
Comment: I was introduced to the magical world of the Redwall books by my friend last month, and recently, I have finished "Mossflower", the second installment of the series. So many characters, lots of battles, and an excellent plot. I loved this book! I was glad to hear more of Martin the Warrior, and the creation and origon of The Redwall Abbey! The story begins with the death of Verdauga, the wild cat ruler of Mossflower. He had two children, Gingivere, a kind and gentle cat, and Tsarmina, a merciless tyrant. Tsarmina and a vixen named Fortunauta poison Verdauga's medicine. Tsarmina blames Gingivere who is sent to the cells where Martin was previosly sentenced to for passing through Mossflower armed with a sword, which Tsarmina broke and tied the handle to Martin's neck. Soon a mousetheif named Gonff is also sent to the same cell as Martin, a short time later, they escape back to Brockhall, the home of all the woodlanders who wished to be freed from the iron fist of Tsarmina the Queen of the Thousand eyes, and the ruler of Kotir and Mosflower. Soon, Bella, the ruler of Brockhall, sends Gonff, Martin, and Young Dinny the mole on a dangerous quest to the mountain of the Fire Lizard, Salamandastron, to find her father, Boar, and bring him back to Mossflower to restore justice. On the way, the trio run into nice bats, frogs and other reptiles, and a new friend, Log-a-Log the shrew. Together, they make it to the mountain, where they meet Boar the fighter! Boar and his large group of hares fix Martin's sword, and make it stronger. But Boar dies in a battle against the searats of the "BloodWake", which Boar wins even though he was killed. Martin, Gonff, Dinny, and Log-a-Log free the slaves that where serving as oarslaves on the ship. They sail back to Mossflower and flood Kotir out. Then Martin and Tsarmina have a final battle to the death. Tsarmina is stunned by the power of the small mouse, she walks backwards into the water, and she drounds. The story ends with the Abbey being built and the freedom of Mossflower!
Mossflower was the best Redwall book I have read yet, and I would recomend it to almost anyone in the world! You should read it.

Summary: Couldn't put it down
Comment: I think Mossflower is one of thebest books I've ever read. The book follows four basic groups throughout it. The first group is the Corim. They're like a rebel group against this communist-like group. The main leader of the Corim is Bella, a local badger of the area. They try to take over what was once theirs from Tsarmina. The second group is Queen Tsarmina, a wildcat, and her army. Her father took over Mossflower and treated the woodlanders nicely. Tsarmina didn't like this, so she killed him. She now rules Mossflower with an iron glove. She blames her brother, Gingevere, for the murder and sends him to jail. The third group is Martin the Warrior, Young Dinny the mole, Gonff the mouse theif, and Log-a-Log the shrew. Each have a different story. They are sent out by Bella to find Salamadastron to bring back her father and husband to overthrow Tsarmina. The last, and least important group, is Argulor. He is an eagle who deperarely wants to eat a pine marten. He has an intense rivarly with Tsarmina. You may not think he's important, but he is. I've read other Redwall books, but htis is one of the best. Every Redwall fan should read it.

Summary: Wicked Wicked awesome!!
Comment: I think this book was just as good, if not better than Redwall. It had a little more action, and less adventure. This book was ten times funnier than Redwall. When reading this series, you don't think of the characters as animals, because you can relate to them as humans.
The story starts out at Ben Stickles house. Troops from Kotir barge in, and take food for the "kingdom". Meanwhile a warrior mouse named Martin is walking through Mossflower. When the soldiers leave the Stickles house, they see Martin. They draw their weapons and start to fight. Martin is winning for about ten minutes, one mouse, verse about five stoats, weasels, and ferrets. He is finally captured and is put in the dungeons of Kotir.
At Kotir, Lord Green eyes, also known as Verdauga, is sick. A healer named Fortunata is trying to "help" him regain his strength. Tasarmina, his greedy, power hungry daughter, has hired the vixen to frame Gingevere, Tasarminas brother, for killing Verdauga. Tasarmina and the fox, make a potion to kill him. They tell Gingivere to deliver it to his father. After drinking it, he dies instantly. Tasarmina takes over, and sends her brother to rot in the dungeon.
With Martin and Gingivere in the dungeon, and the evis Tasarmina ruling Kotir, who will save Mossflower? Read the book to find out. This is a comical, adventorous, and action packed book.
