The latest installment in the phenomenally popular Redwall series willcaptivate fans. Jacques adds to his cast of memorable characters with two new deliciously nasty villains: Korvus Skurr the raven and Sicariss the snake, whoare seeking the four jeweled eyes of the Great Doomwyte Idol, as is the current batch of adorable Redwall heroes. Jacques trademark anagrams and clever riddles finally lead the heroes to the glittering treasure. There are some particularly delightful new characters, including an always-hungry Scottish rabbit, Laird Bosie McScutta of Bowlaynee, and the charming tawny owl Aluco.Although this newest title wont stand alone, seriesfollowers will be tickled by references to Redwall history and the chance to adventure (and dine) with the squirrels, moles, mice, and porcupines of Jacques unique world.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2008, American Library Association.) -
