From the mind of Brian Jacques—the New York Times bestselling author of the Redwall series—comes another
exhilarating adventure in this beloved saga.

At the legendary fortress of Salamandastron, aging Lord Asheye has a prophecy. A new, young badger lord must
take his place, but Lord Asheye does not know who the young warrior is. A haremaid of the Long Patrol, Mad
Maudie, is dispatched to track the mysterious badger down. Meanwhile, unaware of his destiny, the future lord
is captured by infamous fox Vizka Longtooth. Vizka and his Sea Raiders intend to impose their will on Redwall
Abbey, and it falls to their captive to defend the abbey and fulfill his destiny.

The feasts have been served. The weapons have been readied. The battle lines have been drawn. It is time for the
thunderous warcry to carry throughout the land—Eulalia! Jacques and his extraordinary troupe of vocal performers
infuse this rousing tale with life, creating a distinct personality for each four-legged character.

লিখকৰ বিষয়ে

Brian Jacques was born in Liverpool, England on June 15, 1939. After he finished St. John's School at the age of fifteen, he became a merchant seaman and travelled to numerous ports including New York, Valparaiso, San Francisco, and Yokohama. Tiring of the lonely life of a sailor, he returned to Liverpool where he worked as a railway fireman, a longshoreman, a long-distance truck driver, a bus driver, a boxer, a police constable, a postmaster, and a stand-up comic. During the sixties, he was a member of the folk singing group The Liverpool Fishermen. He wrote both poetry and music, but he began his writing career in earnest as a playwright. His three stage plays Brown Bitter, Wet Nellies, and Scouse have been performed at the Everyman Theatre. He wrote Redwall for the children at the Royal Wavertree School for the Blind in Liverpool, where he delivered milk as a truck driver. His style of writing is very descriptive, because of the nature of his first audience, for whom he painted pictures with words, so that they could see them in their imaginations. After Alan Durband, his childhood English teacher, read Redwall, he showed it to a publisher without telling Jacques. This event led to a contract for the first five books in the Redwall series. He also wrote the Castaways of the Flying Dutchman series. He died on February 5, 2011.
