About this title

Synopsis

The twelfth Redwall story. Queen Silth rules Castle Mark from behind the curtains of her palanquin, and no beast may look upon the queen and live. Greedy and vain, she has sent her six children and an army of water rats out into the world to plunder treasure to adorn her palace.

About the Author

In the summertime, Brian Jacques creates his enthralling Redwall books on an old manual typewriter in the garden of his Liverpool home. "I like to think of myself as a bit of an old-fashioned romantic in writing," he says. "I don't like technology. I like the romantic age of "once upon a time" and "long ago and far away ..."

Before he began writing for children, Brian Jacques' life was as rich and adventurous as the stories he creates. At the age of fifteen, he went to sea and travelled the world before returning to Liverpool. He has been a professional fold singer and has won acclaim for his plays performed at the Everyman Theatre, where he was resident playwright. For many years, he has presented his one-man show, Jakestown, on Radio Merseyside.
