This fifteen Redwall book continues the pattern: contentment, good cheer, plentiful food, and fine companions exist side-by-side with adventure, mayhem, and death, but in the end the goodness of the Abbey world prevails. With at least four story lines always in play and numerous characters, it's a wonder it ever gets sorted out. Jacques pulls it all together, so that lovers of Redwall will find this another satisfying read.
