Varrock turned out smarter than I thought him to be! I love how he pulled out 'Weasel Gambit' and turned tables on Eggtooth! I do wonder what he plans... he may just throw the foxes at Redwall to get rid of them or he may use them to actually conquer the Abbey, what is worse. And I have a feeling that he plans to use Bastian somehow...

I liked seeing Auma as a young Badger Mother struggling with dibbuns, and see more of other Patrol members. Cheek's endless flirting with Kidd is so funny! That twist concerning Ayla was unexpected. She seemed so meek and timid that I wouldn't ever suspected her hiding any secrets. I wonder why did she escape that tribe and why they want her back...

There is only one thing I find unrealistic, and that's how Starwing was able to carry both Sam and Elmtail. In 'Redwall', two sparrows were not strong enough to carry down one young mouse, and there one sparrow carries two beasts without trouble. That just seems too far-fetched.
