What Redwall-like books are there

[FlinkyTheStoat]

I think a lot of Redwall fans would quite enjoy the Edge Chronicles series by Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell. They remind me a lot of Redwall in that even though it's nominally a kids' or young-adult series, the scope is huge with battles and such, and it can get quite dark and mature, even violent, at times. I think that juxtaposition is a big part of what drew me into Redwall in the first place, and if anything, Edge Chronicles is even more cynical (with some definite grey characters). The world is set atop an endless cliff (the Edge) and there's tons of really creative creatures (and great illustrations of said creatures), a definite pirate/swashbuckling vibe at times (there's buoyant rocks that they use to make flying ships), and I'd say it's a little bit steampunk as well. Think of the movie Treasure Planet and you're kind of barking up the right tree.

No sentient animals, unfortunately (at least, not everyday ones like we see in Redwall), but it's the first thing that popped into my head when I thought to myself "what do I know that's Redwall-ish?"

I love the Edge Chronicles, they're so amazing!

[Kitsune]

The Eragon series by Christopher Paolini. All the way. Amazing books.

[Brinty]

Runt The Brave and Runt the hunted by Daniel Schwabauer are really good.

[Starla1431]

There is a new series called MouseHeart. And there is the Mistmantel series.

[SilentSam]

I read Warriors

[Lady Ashenwyte]

Sundered Lands is fantastic and is  somewhat like Redwall. With hedgehogs and the like.

[The Skarzs]

Is that like the Six Crowns series? I don't know. . .

[Ashleg]

Bumping this so I can remind myself to read these because I need this list.

Well, to add my own little collection of stories with anthromorphic animals.

There's the Son of masguard series, about an otter in a world with various talking animals Ala redwall--with a wolf and coyote being tested main villans for the first book at least--the otter commands a first rate ship of the line--a 18th century style warship with upwards of a hundred guns--with various animals of his crew as he goes exploring for a mystical sceptre to save his kingdom. It is also a lot more fantastical then redwall, since griffins show up at one point.

I am currently reading the first Nightshade book and I love it. Billycan is awesome, and Killdeer is amusing, and the tension they build between Clover and her surroundings is great. Juniper is very smart, too. I feel like this book is one of few that is able to create characters that are so different yet each as interesting as the other.

The only two I feel lack something are the titular Nightshade Brothers.

*That moment when there's "new posts" from 2014 you haven't read*

I shall have to check some of these out.

[The Skarzs]

Same.

Most of the Redwall-like books I remember reading growing up seem to have already been mentioned, but if webcomics count, there is Beyond the Western Deep. It's very Redwall-inspired, by the creators' own admission. Also, during a time when the usual artist was taking a break, they even had a small side story with art done by the well-known Redwall fanartist Jerome Jacinto. Anyone here who hasn't heard of this comic yet should definitely check it out.

[The Skarzs]

Yeah, I read it.
