P. Trueman's Review on High Rhulain

This was probably the best Redwall book, and was filled with action, and a real page turner. It would be close competition with Eldest by C. Paolini, and probably one of the best fantasy/literature books around.

Great Book

The High Ruhlain is about an otter maids adventure and all the friends she makes along the journey. Also, a large Abbey named Redwall, an evil cat lord, and a place called Green isle Take a large part of the story. This amazing book is about a otter maid named Tiria Wildough, who has a dream-vision. In this dream, Martin The Warrior, spirit of Redwall, her home, and a tall otter queen who sort of looks like an older Tiria give the otter a riddle to solve. Later, When she and her friends crack the riddle, they discover that Tiria is descended from the queen in her dream, and Tiria was the rightful ruler of Green isle, where the tyrannical cat lord Riggu Felis has enslaved most of the old otter population, except for a small band of rebels hiding from him.The riddle also said that Tiria was the one to save the otters. On her journey, she meets the Guosim (Gorilla Union Of Shrews In Mossflower), a mad rabbit, named Cuthbert Frunk W. Bloodpaw, a badger lord, by the name of Mandoral high-peak, the lord's rabbit army, the Long Patrol, and a lot of other guys who it would take too long to name. Well, Tiria, Cuthpert, a couple of long potrol squads, and two birds named Pandion and Brantilis set sail on the last leg of the journey to Green isle.once there, a large battle takes place between trained Rabbits from the long patrol and newly enthusiastic rebel otters against the guard of Riggu Felis who, by the way, is killed in this battle a little bit before the rest of the cat army wemt down. But in the process of destroying the cat lord's evil rule, two good friends are left to be greived. I love this book. Some of my favorite parts are the riddles. for example; "Linger sure for the lee, I set my trick carefully, My home lies o'er the sea you'll find the title names me... is" very confusing. I also like howJacquesgoes from talking about Tiria, to Redwall, to the enemy H.Q. He really makes you want the good guys to win. If you like puzzles, dramatic, discriptive books, than this is a must-read. This is Jacques's Master piece.you know the whole time that the good guys will win, but he keeps it realistic at the same time. a true work of art.

Nicely Done!

I enjoyed Brian Jacque High Rhulain. I just got it form the library and read it at record speed. I enjoyed it immencely and would like to commend Brian Jacques for his good work. I especially enjoyed Shellhound and Major Cuthbert Frunk W. Bloodhound. In short, Excellent book

The High Book Reveiw for High Rhulain

Are you a person who loves action, riddels, and adventure? If so than High Rhulain is the book for you. The story starts when a young otter ( Tria Wildlough) has a dream that leads her to embark on a peirlous jorney to Green Isle. to free the otters from the ruthless grasp of Riggu Felis tayrant of Green Isle. I personally liked all of the adventure, action and dioluge in the story. There is nothing in the book I did not like because this is the kind of book I like. My favorite charecter in the book is Leatho Shellhound, an outlaw otter who has managed to avoid the grip of tryany and is working to free all the otters from it. My favorite part in the book is when he along with some others managed to free a few otters that would have otherwise been killed.
