My brother introduced me to the wonderful world of Redwall, and I'm glad he did. I first red Redwall (it took me almost a whole year), then I went on to read all of them, some of them twice, Martin the Warrior 3 times. I would play games about redwall and make stories about my own characters and places. I was hooked, and still am to this day. Redwall got me in to a series the way no other series has, not even Harry Potter. I still count my Redwall books as my prized possesions, and I'm so sad there will be no more to come. I, like I'm sure many others, will read The Rouge Crew with tears in my eyes. RIP Brian Jacques.
