Rendition Concering Books Lord Brocktree (Redwall #13)
The young haremaid Dotti and the badger-warrior Lord Brocktree—unlikely comrades—set out for Salamandastron together, only to discover the legendary mountain has been captured by the wildcat Ungatt Trunn and his Blue Hordes. To face them, the two must rally an army—hares and otters, shrews and moles, mice and squirrels—and execute a plan that makes up in cleverness what it lacks in force.

"Defend the weak, protect both young and old, never desert your friends. Give justice to all, be fearless in battle and always ready to defend the right." The law of Badger Lords, Lord Brocktree, P. 370 Thirteen books into the beloved Redwall series, Brian Jacques demonstrates in Lord Brocktree that his tales of Mossflower Wood and its many and varied inhabitants still have plenty of freshness in reserve. This is the best entry in the series since The Bellmaker, episode seven in the RedwallThere's always a risk involved in re-reading childhood favorites. What if they're not as good as I remember? What if they espouse views I now can't stand?That last one is a serious potential problem for the Redwall books, because Brian Jacques made no bones about writing morality with very few shades of grey. As he once wrote in the introduction to the Friend and Foe guide, "Goodies are good!" And yet, despite growing up on his work, I find myself less and less fond of black-and-white morality

Lord Brocktree is a tough book to rate. One one hand, the book contains a fun and interesting story with likable characters. On the other hand, there are so many things in this book that are either completely unnecessary or just plain annoying (or both). It comes down to this: Are the abundant annoyances present in this book forgivable due to the presence of a well told story?The answer to the above question, in this case, is no. Yes, Brocktree and Stonepaw are interesting characters who have a
Lord Brocktree is probably the cleverest Badger Lord of the Redwall series and throughout the book relies more on his brain than his brawn. Its a nice departure from the usual, especially since many of Jacques characters all start sounding the same after a while. Another nice departure was the antagonism between Fleetscut and Jukka and the maidenry of Dotti. Her emphasis on proper manners just to rile her opponents made for some of the funniest scenes in the book, and lets not forget all the
The story itself wasn't too bad, it would have been a happy easy read. The different dialects and 'speaks' used throughout became difficult to understand. I understand the author's intent, but in practice it unfortunately made the reading experience jarring.
This is one of the most adventurous and daring books I have ever read out of the 600 books I have read! the book describes whats happening in such great detail I can see whats happening in my mind Brian Jacques is a great author. I recommend this book to everyone.
