I love the Redwall series! It's the best(next to LotR)! I love the shrews and the moles! Molespeach is very funny. So far I've read Lord Brocktree, Martin the Warrior, The Bellmaker, Mariel of Redwall, Marlfox, Outcast of Redwall, and Salamandastron. My favorite is Lord Brocktree. And for anyone who doesn't alreday know or thinks otherwise, Lord Brocktree is first chronologically.

Palanturiel · 08-03-2002, 11:35 PM

I've been reading the Redwall Books since i was like 8. that was before i read LOTR. Now i have practically all the books in both series'. I dont have taggerung, but thats it. and on the question of the order of the books, just go to http://www.redwall.org and it tells you everything you could ever want to know. but personally i cant choose between the 2 authors or any of the books.

Zar · 08-21-2002, 01:13 AM

No idea which ones the best! ive read them all 3times(Except taggerung I read once and brocktreetwice) And I get them all muddled. I like them all. Im almost positive old Brockers is first then martin.

Faramir · 08-21-2002, 10:39 AM

The second Martin one is Mossflower. Since that post, I've read Redwall, Mattimeo, The Taggerung, and The Long Patrol.

P.S. I have Redwall RPG site. If you want the URL, PM me.

Elenka · 08-26-2002, 09:01 AM

I love the Redwall books. My favorites among what I have read so far are Mattimeo and Redwall. I love mole speech, its so funny. I also like how you can trace generations through the diferent books.

Lady of Darkness · 08-31-2002, 10:24 PM

what i meant by the second Martin book was the one after Mattimeo.
Mattimeo names his shon Martin.
sorry for the confusion
i don't want schoollll!!!!!
die school DIEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

Sylvee Estel · 09-01-2002, 01:11 PM

I just finished the Long Patrol. It was excellant. I love the hares!

TinuvielChild · 09-13-2002, 11:09 PM

I used to love Redwall. I haven't read them in awhile, but my favorites are definitely:

Redwall
Martin the Warrior
Mattimeo
Mossflower
The Pearls of Lutra

The rest are good too, but after awhile they all seem to have the same plot. Just something I noticed after I read a lot of them.

Lady of Darkness · 09-26-2002, 07:37 AM

yeah I know but you definatly gotta love 'em! the only thing i don't like is how there are no horses in them*pouts*. oh well *sighs*. I hope there is another one soon. anyone know?
the great and terrible Lady of Darkness is sick*throws up*

TolkienGurl · 11-08-2002, 04:14 PM

I've read the Redwall books consistently for about 5 years now. I absolutely love them! Did you know there's a new one out? I think its called Triss. I have all of the books, except the new one, which I'm going to buy once I have the money (

).

They were originally written for blind children. That's why they are so descriptive and the dialects so unique.

Redwall is definitely one-of-a-kind!

TwirlingString · 11-09-2002, 06:00 PM

rggh I need to pay more attention! I HAVE to get that book! I've gotten so addicted to Hp fanfiction latelt that I've been missing everything!

Silverstripe · 11-13-2002, 01:43 PM

I really like the Redwall series (see my name?

)
My two best friends and I sometimes joke about being a Squelf, Mobbit, and Dwole (squirrel-elf, mouse-hobbit, dwarf-mole). My favorite books in the series are Redwall, Mossflower, Mariel of Redwall, and The Bellmaker.

gandalffan2525 · 11-13-2002, 06:32 PM

has any one seen the cartoons?
if not, DONT!! they are horrible!
the attemps at all the diffrent dialects are, are, augh!!
on a happier note: triss is the next book and its pretty good.

TwirlingString · 11-13-2002, 08:17 PM

I used to watched them, they were really dumb, but they were worth it just to see the sparra.

Lief Erikson · 11-14-2002, 02:29 AM

I've read all of them except the most recent one, and with varying degrees of enjoyment. Most of them have several things the same in them, and the plots and characters aren't too much different. Only when one occasionally comes out that really branches off of the old ones do I really get involved in it.

I really liked the Outcast of Redwall and Sunflash the Mace more than most of the others, if I remember correctly. I like the ones that cover a period of time in them, and also the ones in which the villains are unique.

Silverstripe · 11-25-2002, 07:15 PM

From what I remember, as a general rule, the earlier books are better than the later ones. But hey! There aren't that many authors who can keep up a good series for more than a trilogy (many not even that), and BJ did.

TolkienGurl · 11-25-2002, 07:37 PM

My favorites would have to be The Pearls of Lutra and Taggerrung. I can't wait until Friday! That's my birthday and I'm gonna buy Triss with my birthday-money! yay!

I think it served to show that Martin was, along with being a great hero, just an ordinary mouse who had to make sacrifices just like everyone else in Redwallland.

I was the most huge Redwall fan for years. My first ever RPG was as a mouse. A healer mouse. (It was more a pass-along-through-a-discussion-board-story than anything else.) But very fun.

I don't really like Redwall anymore...maybe it's just a negative phase...but I think I've outgrown them. The plot seems the same book after book after book. However, they are written in an addictive, colorful writing style that even I probably won't be able to resist...Can't wait until the next book!

(Yes...my sentiments are a bit confused...oh well. )
