Newest Review: ... Me? Of course I am, this is the age of So Solid Crew not the Secret freakin' Seven so can someone please explain to me why "Triss" was the most enjoyable children's book I've read in ages, anything by Eoin Colfer excepted?

Premium Review Brian Jacques in general: TRISS - A REVIEW OF THE 15TH REDWALL CHRONICLE (457 words)

Rating:

I must confess from the outset that when I sat down to read "Triss", the fifteenth instalment in Brian Jacques' epic "Redwall" series of books, I knew next to nothing about the whole phenomenon. The sum total of my knowledge was that it was set around an abbey populated by forest creatures with human characteristics and that there is some kind of "Redwall" fan club that attracts an anorak following among 12 year-olds who, let's face it, by now should be learning to swear along to their Eminem CDs and weild baseball bats as they deal Temazepan on their local housing estates. Cynical? Me? Of course I am, this is the age of So ...

I can still remember the day I first discovered Brian Jacques - I was eleven and it was the first visit to the library after moving to Gloucester. I borrowed a copy of Salamandastron - the fifth book in the series, and I was instantly spellbound! Thirteen books later (with a fourteenth eagerly anticipated) and a few days from my twentieth birthday, I'm still as obsessed as ever!!!! The Redwall series concerns several main places - the red brick abbey of Redwall itself; Mossflower - the huge forest surrounding it; and Salamandastron - the mountain of the Badger Lords that stands on the coast to the west of Mossflower.
