British bookseller Blackstone has posted the cover for the U.K. edition of Rakkety Tam (seen right), drawn by the always-exceptional David Wyatt. This marks Wyatt’s third Redwall cover since the artist took over for fan-favorite artist Chris “Fangorn” Baker.

Rakkety Tam is the story of a highlander squirrel, named Rakkety Tam MacBurl, and his quest to gain freedom from the service of a foolish squirrel king named Araltum. Along the way, he must face the fearsome wolverine, Gulo the Savage, who is pursuing his brother Askor in hopes of reclaiming the fabled Walking Stone.

While Rakkety Tam has already hit U.S. shelves, U.K. fans will have to wait until October 7th to read the tale.

Keep your eyes peeled for The Long Patrol’s forthcoming review.
