Books-A-Million recently posted two detailed summaries, one for Loamhedge and another for The Tale of Urso Brunov.
The summary for Loamhedge is:
The sixteenth full-length Redwall novel sheds light on the Abbey’s ancient origins in a thrilling adventure. Loamhedge, the deserted Abbey, has been forgotten for countless seasons. What secrets do its ruins hold? When it becomes clear that wheelchair-bound Martha might be cured by a formula buried there, two old warriors are inspired by the spirit of Martin the Warrior himself to go on a quest for the ancient Abbey–and three young rebels are determined to go with them. Meanwhile, the giant badger Lonna Bowstripe thirsts for vengeance as he relentlessly pursues Raga Bol and his murdering crew of Searats … who are on their way to attack Redwall itself! The valiant Abbeybeasts must defend their home, but how can they, when their boldest warriors are away on their quest? Will Redwall fall to vermin invaders at last? A rare glimpse into Redwall’s history makes this volume a memorable addition to Jacques’ epic. Fans will not be disappointed, and new readers will be eager to jump on board.
The summary for The Tale of Urso Brunov is:
This tall tale from Redwall creator Brian Jacques features a brand new hero: Urso Brunov, the Little Father of All Bears. The strongest, wisest, bravest bear in the world, he is also the smallest, no bigger than the size of your thumb. Other animals of the forest stand in awe of him–except one: a mustached monster who captures four of Urso’s bears and puts them in his zoo, but who learns all too soon that the Little Father is truly a force to be reckoned with. On his way to rescue the lost bears, Urso Brunov matches wits with a tribe of boars, teaches manners to a billygoat, skims across the Deep River on a wooden flute, and finally confronts the Lord of All Sands. He’ll get those bears back, never fear–believe him, for he is Urso Brunov!
Loamhedge is slated to be released this September and The Tale of Urso Brunov should hit shelves in October. Stay tuned to the Newsline for more developments.
