Book description
Badrang the Tyrant stoat, the evil Lord of the Eastern Coast, has
forced captive slaves to build his fortress, Marshank. Among these
slaves is an indomitable young mouse called Martin who, together with
his friends Felldoh and Brome, escapes from the fortress, aided by Rose
of Noonvale and Grumm the mole. So begins a tale of adventure love,
treachery and deceit. The action is fast and furious scattered with
characters like Cap'n Tramun Clogg, Ambella and her Pygmy shrews, and
the Rambling Rosehip Players. A stirring yarn with all Brian Jacques'
usual ingredients of feasts, rhymes, songs, battles and humour, and
starring a legendary Redwall hero: MARTIN THE WARRIOR! Brian Jacques
