My mom was wondering. We looked it up and found he went to a catholic school. Sorry for the random question, but I'm full of them.

I always figured St. Ninian's was something like the horse from the first book - it got a different meaning as the series progressed. Started out as a home for the churchmice - you know the saying, "poor as a church mouse?" - but if there's no religion in Redwall, as BJ has said, then what was it a church for? Not that it matters since it was burned down, of course. ;)

Speaking of places in Mossflower, I'm interested in where the path outside the abbey starts and ends, and who made it.
Redwall is always open, its tables laden, to you and any of good heart.

I like Brockhall, in Mossflower and stuff it just makes you feel safe,  as if you know nothing will happen that might kill someone while they are still there. Of course, that all changed in the Sable Quean...
Received mostly negative reviews.

In an interview with Fast Forward, he describes himself as a working-class Irish Catholic from Liverpool...which meant that he never felt okay with just hanging around...he always felt like he should be working!  Which meant more Redwall books for us to enjoy!

There's a Long Patrol a waitin', we'll greet you cheerfully,
You'll hear us cry 'Eulalia' on the breeze.

Wot Wot!

My favorite place in mossflower would probably be the underground castle. How can you go wrong with treasure and glow in the dark mud?

Kotir Castle's ruins are pretty cool. I just wish it wasn't swarming with blind toads. :P

Hmmmm... Was the path in the book Mossflower? Sorry I don't have the books in front of me. Because If it wasn't, maybe it was put in for travelers after redwall was built?
