Review Summaries
" This is the epic tale of Redwall's most legendary hero and founder. As a young mouse, Martin is captured by Badrang the Tyrant, an evil stoat. Even more unforgivable, he has killed many and stolen Martin's father's battle sword. Enduring enough of the Tyrant's evil ways, he gets into a fight with the guards and Badrang himself. Escaping the horrifying death sentence by two spies, Rose the mouse and Grumm the mole, he is thrown into a pit with two others.

The battle of Marshank begins as Martin's force gathers... " Mai Tsuji, Resident Brian Jacques Scholar
