The Bellmaker (Redwall #7) 
One of my favorite Redwall books yet, especially since there is a searat who actually gets to have a redemptive arc! It makes it more interesting when you can't classify an animal as "good" or "bad" merely by species. There are 3 different storylines going on at once, which isn't unusual for a Redwall book, but Jacques does a marvelous job of bringing them all together.
This book is at the same time one of the singularly most beautiful stories I have ever read, and one of the most original and humorous. I can't explain how author Brian Jacques is able to turn out bold, mysterious, resounding and completely wonderful stories every time he takes pen to page, but The Bellmaker easily rivals any of the other classics that he has created. The depth and shining beauty of the writing is unsurpassed in all of literature, in my opinion; it is romantic and entertaining

One of my favorite child hood fantasy series. I still love it and occasionally pick one out to read for a light and easy novel. I have read the series many times.
Methinks it's time for me to take a break from Redwall for a bit, although this means I won't get all of the intra-series references in the next bajillion books. But there's only so much repetition I can take before I start wondering if I've actually read this one already. Otters are scary but lovable: check. Rats are bad: check. Badgers are hell on wheels: check. There will be a sea voyage: check. There will be a tyrant who is cooked in his own pudding and good riddance: check. There will be a
In the seventh book in the Redwall series by Jacques, the reader gets to revisit old friends on a new adventure. The focus of the story is on Mariel and Dandin, after they've left Redwall in search of new adventures themselves. Along the way they are swept up in the battle to free Southsward from the evil Urgan Nagru Foxwolf and his vixen mate, Silvamord, who overthrew Gael Squirrelking and his family and took over Castle Floret. Mariel's father, Joseph, and other old Redwall friends like Durry
This is a great book and in my opinion can be enjoyed at many levels for all ages. I have read every one of Brian Jacques books and am now on the second round of reading them. Brian Jacques is sadly no longer with us so no more wonderful tales of Redwall. In this book Joseph the Bellmaker is visited in a dream by Martin the Warrior. He is told to set off and find his missing daughter. The book is full of action and adventure and of course a wicked enemy as always. No spoilers. If you are young

Retracing my steps through the Redwall books that I read the least as a child has been really interesting. This book, along with the two directly before and after, definitely changed since last I read it. The Southsward story, which I thought I remembered the most, was much darker than I remember, what with the traumatization of Muta and Rab and the fact that Glokkpod actually does abandon the crew. It's a bit too reminiscent of the Terramort story from the last book for my taste; I thinkOne of my favorite Redwall books yet, especially since there is a searat who actually gets to have a redemptive arc!
