Master stroyteller Brian Jacques does it again with yet another story. In other Redwall books you read a lot about the Long Patrol, but perhaps you wanted to learn more about them? Well the tenth book of the Redwall series does that and more with Redwall's biggest battle. Tammo(A young mountain hare) always wanted to be a Long Patrol hare, but his father forbidded it until he grew older. When Tammo finally gets the chance, he joins the Long Patrol and sets out on a long and unforgettable journey against the 1000 rapscallions and Damug Warfang.

Redwall books

Like Anne McCaffrey, Jacques writes his books out of order. as far as I can tell this is the cronological order of the redwall books. Martin the warrior, Mossflower, Redwall, Mattimeo, Mariel of Redwall, Bellmaker, Salamandastron, Outcast of Redwall, Pearls of Lustra, Long Patrol, Don't know about anyone else but I like to read them in historical order instead of read past, present, past, past , prequel, present and so on. But they are good books so what ever order you want to read them, you'll enjoy them.

Great book very interesting

Though it has been a while since i have read this book I still know it is a great book. I think it is the best of the series because it has a lot of action. Some people dont know the books very well but here is the correct order of books. Redwall, Mossflower, Mattimeo, Mariel of Redwall, Salamandastron, Martin the Warrior, The Bellmaker, Outcast of Redwall, Pearls of Lutra, The Long Patrol, Marlfox, and The Legend of Luke. They are all great books but that is stiill my favorite.

Absoballyloutly top-hole wot wot!

Exellent book eh ole' chap, wot! In other words great book. All about how the fighting hares of Salamandastron called the Long Patrol fight the evil Rapscallions or giant rats lead by evil Damug Warfang. this was a suspenseful but fun book and if you'd please do me a favor and read it I'd be overjoyed!

Absoballylutely top hole, wot!

This is a GREAT book. It has a good plot, good characters, good everything! It is definitely one of the best in the series. I strongly reccomend this book to any Redwall fan. I'm sure you'll like it as much as I do.
