Re: Redwall

used to read these all the time. Some of the animals speech was annoying to read though. Also, the plots in most of the books were structured the same.

I'm surprised to learn than people above the age of ten actually read these books.

Re: Redwall

Sadly all I ever managed to get a hold of was Martin the Warrior...I read it during a summer vacation to a local lake...of all the movies, television, and books I've encountered...Martin the Warrior was the only one to make me actually cry...my heart just about broke at the end...

I've had a special place for it in my memories ever since...


I always was just a little bit insulted that it is deemed a "children's" book...the story is just as good as most of the books I've read as an adult...better than some even...

and for the record...

I was surprised to find that I still enjoyed them after decades. :shock: Not as much as I did when I was a kid, but I still like them and enjoy the read.

I think books have a special part in our lives. Especially those books that we read and get attached to when we are small. They ring true to us deep down when we are innocent and learning about the world and don't change (the story we read) no matter how old we get or what happens in the world. They remain constant.
