Amazon.co.uk Review
As Ferrett Swartt Sixclaw and his arch enemy Sunflash the Mace swear a pledge of death upon each other, a young creature is cruelly banished from the safety of Redwall. As he grows, he seeks revenge on the people of Redwall and finds himself embroiled in a bitter battle that has far reaching consequences.

An epic Tale of Redwall from the pen of master storyteller Brian Jacques, Outcast of Redwall is a kaleidoscope of colour, range and emotions that culminates in a bitter battle between good and evil. None of the passion of the previous Redwall titles is lost as some of the most cherished landscapes and best loved characters from previous books are revisited, bringing with them a wisdom and clarity that has developed and endured.

On a basic level, this is a cracking fantasy adventure story. Look deeper and you will find that this, along with the other titles in the series, has a divine, enduring quality that ranks it among he best in children's literature. --Susan Harrison

Customer Reviews

A fantastic book
The book is Outcast of Redwall by Brian Jacques. This is a grown up book. It's is also a animal book. Sunflash is a badger and Skarlath is a kestrel who are both trying to get Swartt Sixclaw who is a rat who trapped both of them. I think every adult should read it.

Fantastic (there is no other word)
Again exceptional work from Mr Jacques. I find that this book really displays a grasp of the fact that life isn't as black and white as we like to think there are many grey areas...Veil is a grey area and is made so by the love and courage of a determined young mouse who just won't give up on the babe she raised, no matter what he does. The parallel story of Swartt and Sunflash is perhaps favoured by me and my favourite character has to be Skarlath...the touching friendship that lasts between Sunflash and his hawk made the book for me. I would recommend this whether you have read anything by Jacques before or not.

martin the warrior what a cool guy
martin the warrior
This is a story of a young mouse warrior called Martin,funnily enough,who swears a warrior's oath to kill Badrang the stoat.Iwould say Badrang is cunningly wicked.Martin and the hoard of young otters and shrews and the fredom fighters defeat Marshank and win the war. I really liked this book due to the masterfull charactersation and hillareous dialog. And i would advise this book to anybody with a mind like mine!
