We love Watership Down by Richard Adams its about a warren of rabtibs. kind of C.S. Lewis meets Bryan Jacques. We love the Redwall books and have many of them. Also Anne of Green Gables and The Little House series. We have read through the Chronicles of Narnia and love them. Right now we are reading My Side of the Mountain and we just finished Trails to Poosey which is like a boyish version of Little House. We also Love King of the Wind by Marguerite Henry who wrote all the Misty books. I could go on and on

Liked the tribute. I wrote one myelsf on my facebook page that had more comedic and loving obituary as well as summing up why i loved his work. Seems like we’re in the same boat; when i was in 5th grade i picked up Redwall after a friend recommended it. after that i read his books and many others besides, became a fantasy writer and drew much of my style back them from him. due to a wider exposure to lit it has sobered and matured, and i know what you mean about jacques’s conventionality (came from him not reading other childrens writers so every idea he wrote would be his own), but i still bought his books, enjoyed them, and still loved them for what they were.the way i see it, jacques was a catholic, but i like to think, rather than going to the dark forest like they do in the books, he went to my idea of heaven: redwall itself. perhaps he is like their eternal father abbot; wise and funny and always being consulted by elders or poked fun at by the dibbuns, who he would also play with. or maybe he is like martin; a spirit safeguarding morality and helping those that need it. either way, he left the world a better place than he found it, and he will not be forgot!

Fear not, Redwall fans! Maybe Brian Jacques’s family will take up the threads of Redwall sagas! The Rogue Crew. I wonder how it is?

I have not read the sable quean, but I will deffinitly read this one. I was a big Redwall fan, and I want to see what Mr. Jacques was up to before…. I’m sure it will be very entertaining!!
