Saddest Redwall Book

[Delthion]

I'm glad to see someone agrees with me!

@Delthion. Well, just got mah hands on Pearls of Lutra and reading it right now. I actually started crying with joy in the library when I found they had Redwall books.   I find that the seagulls stealing the marchpane balls from the cake mistaking them to be the Tears of All Oceans hilarious.

EDIT: Just finished, just a little bit disappointed that there was no HUGE battle at the end.   Well, its still fantastic.

I'm honestly going to say Martin The Warrior: there are other Redwall books that are sad, but having your loved one die in a battle that you could have prevented her from "attending"... now that's just dipressinh

I think that book was meant to be dramatic and be a tragedy, and Brian did a good job portraying it.

Agreed. I don't think Shakespear could have done any better at  a tragedy drama...

Um. . . yyyyes he could. There are four great tragedians: Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, and Shakespeare. They formed tragedy.

I've read some Shakespeare... they were great in the sense of stories, but I really didn't find them sad. But Martin The Warrior really almost brought me to tears... but that's just my opinion.

Martin the Warrior was a book with a sad ending. It wasn't a tragedy though. Practicaly everyone has to die in a real tragedy.

I always cry when Abbot Mortimer dies in Redwall.

Wait, Brook? Your here??? Not trying to be creepy or anything, but I haven't seen you in a LONG time...

[The Skarzs]

She's been supervising the tournament, so yeah.

I think Martin the Warrior was the saddest Redwall book. Sooooo sad!

Loamhedge.  Though Rose's death was pretty sad in the tv series.

Either Mattimeo or Outcast of Redwall.

Mattimeo's general atmosphere was misery and despair. Things would start to come right, then something would happen and destroy their hope again. (And Warbeak dying made me cry)

Outcast of Redwall had some very happy parts that seemed to make Sunflash's past all the more terrible. His friendship with Skarlath was beautiful and the end to that friendship was heartbreaking.

Mattimeo was pretty much depressing the whole way through.
Martin the Warrior was also SO sad! Slavery, death just an all around depressing. God that book was such a downer but still so good.
The Bellmaker and Taggerung weren't very sad but Finbarr and Cregga's deaths were the only deaths to make me cry in redwall.
