Book description
Trundle and Esmeralda are facing an impossible task. The last of the
six lost crowns of the Badger Lords of Old is hidden on an island no
one has ever heard of. Even if they do manage to find it, they must
then set sail for a place that doesn't exist! With the crowns they
have found behaving so very dangerously, Aunt Millie and the pirates
breathing down their necks, and powerful magic working against them,
is there any hope that they can fulfil their quest?
Allan was born under the kitchen floor of a derelict
house in south-east London. At the age of nine, he inherited a
typewriter and, for want of anything better to do, began to write
stories. He had his first book published at the age of one hundred and
three; lots more followed. He has a German wife, an English cat and a
collection of old Beano annuals. Gary was born under a bush and
brought up by a family of weasels. He was hopeless in school except
for art, English and history, in which he weaselly came top of the
class. After working as a teacher for a while, he became an
illustrator, and drew the pictures for many of the Redwall books. He
lives with his wife in a farmhouse in the French countryside, working
in a huge attic, surrounded by scraps of paper and hundreds of toy
soldiers.
