Summary: 5 Stars
Mariel of Redwall is book number four in the fascinating Redwall series. In this book, the young mousemaid Mariel and her father Joseph the Bellmaker are captured by the evil searat Gabool the Wild on Fort Bladegirt in the isle Terramort. Joseph is locked in the dungeons while Mariel serves Gabool. She nearly kills Gabool in a swordfight; he was only saved by his henchrats knocking her senseless. Gabool has Mariel thrown into the sea on a piece of wood. In the midst of a storm, she is washed up on an island with no memory at all. After she decides on a name, Storm Gullwhacker, Storm after that which she was washed up in and Gullwhacker after the knotted rope she uses as a weapon against gulls and other beasts. Saved by three Long Patrol hares of Salamandastron, she journeys to Redwall Abbey and uponhereing an old poem, she remembers her past and realizes that her ultimate quest is to kill the corsair that nearly killed her.
Joined by Dandin, Tarquin L. Woodsorrel, and Durry Quill, she sets out to rescue her father and make Gabool pay for her imprisonment, her father's treatment, and his lifetime of wickedness. Read on and find out what happens to the warriors of Redwall!!
I liked this bookbecause it was really captivating, and I also liked the continuation of this story, called Joseph the Bellmaker. The series is a captivating, interesting read. I recommend this book to all newcomers to Brian Jacque's Redwall series and to anyone who likes action, adventure, escapes, wars, friendship, and lovesick, gluttonous hares!!
Summary of Mariel of Redwall (Redwall, Book 4)
When the mouse-ship carrying Joseph the Bellmaker and his daughter Mariel runs afoul of a pirate rat king, they are mercilessly tossed overboard. Washed ashore and certain that her father is dead, Mariel vows revenge.
Heaved off her ship in a pirate raid, Mousemaid Mariel is washed up on the shores of Mossflower. With no idea where she is, or indeed who she is, the young warrior mouse embarks on an unforeseen adventure that will take her to the very heart of Redwall and into the arms of the people who live there.
Mariel of Redwall is a captivating and magical adventure story in the Redwall series by Brian Jacques. At times gentle, but mostly packed with adventure and heroism on the grandest of scales, this tale is at once delightful and devastating in its proportions.
Jacques weaves his customary magic, taking the reader to the heart and soul of the mythical Redwall--welcoming, terrifying, magical, and at times all too real. The place, the characters, and the adventure spring to life in a bout of indefinable magic, mystery, and mayhem. An excellent book that will leave readers begging for more. (Fortunately, there's plenty more where this came from!) --Susan Harrison
