About this title

Review:

Praise for Brian Jacques

"Jacques's fervent followers are rewarded with the author's usual swashbuckling good storytelling, while the newly initiated will read with wide eyes, and quickly go back to hungrily devour the rest of the series."--Amazon.com on Triss

"Scrumptious feasts, rollicking humor, swashbuckling heroes, faithful friends, and treacherous villains magically combine through three intertwined action-packed plots into one unforgettable, spellbinding story." --VOYA on Triss

"Almost nonstop action."--School Library Journal on The Angel's Command
