Ah, aye, that's what I thought you were trying to say mate. ;) The line is drawn at this:

If you make a work that is not Redwall but resembles Redwall, then you aren't violating copyright. Mouseguard and countless other recent Redwall-styled series of books are very similar in concept, but they don't actually infringe, even though many of these authors directly credit Brian Jacques as their "inspiration" to write anthropomorphic animal novels. If you make a work that is Redwall, takes content directly from Redwall, and/or claims to be Redwall, then it begins to get into the hazy territory of copyright law. I hope this adequately answers the question. :)
