Redwall

De: Brian Jacques

Narrado por: Ariyon Bakare

The book that inspired a legend—the first novel in the bestselling saga of Redwall.

Welcome to Mossflower Wood, where the gentle mice have gathered to celebrate a year of peace and abundance. All is well…until a sinister shadow falls across the ancient stone abbey of Redwall. It is rumored that Cluny is coming—Cluny, the terrible one-eyed rat and his savage horde—Cluny, who has vowed to conquer Redwall Abbey! The only hope for the besieged mice lies in the lost sword of the legendary Martin the Warrior. And so begins the epic quest of a bumbling young apprentice—a courageous mouse who would rise up, fight back…and become a legend himself.

“The medieval world of Redwall Abbey—where gallant mouse warriors triumph over evil invaders—has truly become the stuff of legend.”—Seattle Post-Intelligencer

Adventurous story and great narration

Brought me back to my childhood. A great adventure story. The narration was great and I enjoyed the various voices used.

Our whole family loves this story.

My whole family loves this story. My son borrowed it on audio cd from our local library when he was just a boy. I bought it on audible, to share with the next generation starting with my my son's daughter. The story teaches strength, honor, courage, and love.

A Classic.

I read this book when I was younger, and reread it while listening to the audiobook. This is my first audiobook on audible and it was amazing. I will be reading and listening to every book in this series. And countless more stories on this app.
If you haven’t read this book, you should. It is well paced and keeps you engaged as the journey and battles unfold.
A classic for all ages, through and through.

Wonderful Novel

A top tier tale, an adequate performance. Sometimes the reader made me laugh with his over the top character voices. I didn’t like that he would mispronounce the occasional word like adding a “V” sound instead of “TH” in the words “gather”, “altogether” and “brother”. Also a “F” sound at the end of “Red tooth” sometimes. A great book though, regardless of the reader and my 5 year old nephew fell in love with it! We called each other “Cheese Thief” and “Rag Ear” after listening and he wanted to hear it every night!

Lovely book

I had fond memories of reading this as a child. I quite enjoyed listening to this with my son, and reliving the first read through from his eyes.

Love Brian Jaques Redwall series!

This version is well read. Very entertaining and fun fir the whole family! I highly recommend it!

Good story, mediocre narrator

The story is incredible. This is my 4th time reading it. Unfortunately, the narrator’s characters are way too similar to easily follow.
