Redwall Abbey
British author Brian Jacques relates the adventures and struggles of animal heroes with human characteristics set in Medieval times. On the peace-loving side are mice, moles, shrews, squirrels, and their friends. The villains are rats, weasels, stoats, foxes, and their allies. These enemies face off in the eternal battle of good versus evil and life versus death. This list presents the books in the order of publication.
According to the official Redwall web site,
http://www.redwall.org/, one new Redwall adventure is to
be published every year, and NLS will produce the book in both audio and braille format. The Redwall
