The Sable Quean is coming to paperback

Art by Troy Howell

The penultimate Redwall novel, The Sable Quean, is only two months away from hitting paperback.  The story of a Salamandastron blademaster and a dibbun-snatching Quean, the novel doesn’t disappoint.  It also marked the debut of new interior illustrator, Sean Rubin (audio book cover artist and once-official artist for Redwall.org).

The release will be from Ace, in the distinctive bordered style that has graced the paperback editions since Martin the Warrior.  A Firebird paperback is expected to follow sometime in the next year.

The Sable Quean paperback hits bookshelves April 26th, 2011.  If you haven’t read it yet, mark your calendars!
