About this title

Review:

Vicious Foxwolf , Urgan Nagru--a fox who long ago discovered the body of a wolf and skinned it to wear as his own--is holding the young Mariel and Dandin captive. The pair are at the mercy of the evil despot and have only one hope of survival. But can they really count on the legendary freedom fighter, Martin the Warrior, to come to their rescue?

The Bellmaker, A Tale of Redwall, fairly boils over with passion, intrigue and adventure. A true page-turner, the heat is immediately turned on full, and never cools until the close of the very last chapter. Brian Jacques' skill lies in creating fantastical yet believable characters, placing them in a fantastical yet believable setting and then letting rip with a flood of imagination that takes the breath away. One of the best writers of our time, Jacques comes through once again for his readers in this remarkable tale of good triumphing over evil. (9 years and over) --Susan Harrison
