Unfortunately, I think I have you beat. I can polish off a Redwall novel in the space of about 8 hours. But I might as well see if that still holds true.

Osu

I happen to have a full free day later in the week, so I'll definitely try this!

Osu
The Rogue Crew
(Hmmm.... I think 12 hours is a reasonable goal for me.) Will be updated later!
Redwall is always open, its tables laden, to you and any of good heart.

Sounds like heaps of fun, and I'd love to be involved, but unfortnatly for me I have barely no free time and a very short attention span. Aren't cakes just so lovely....
Received mostly negative reviews.

HeadInAnotherGalaxy

I guess I'll try it. At least this will be another reason to read it. Sigh......I have so many books that I'm reading at the moment...

NARDOLE; You are completely out of your mind!
DOCTOR: How is that news to anyone?

"I am Yomin Carr, the harbinger of doom. I am the beginning of the end of your people!" -Yomin Carr

-Sometime later, the second mate was unexpectedly rescued by the subplot, which had been trailing a bit behind the boat (and the plot). The whole story moved along.

James Gryphon

Ever since I was a kid and read my first few Redwall stories, starting, I believe, with Mossflower, I've always been able to do it in about three to four hours, tops.

Top post looks great! I have a quick question: does the timing include breaks between reading, or is it just the time spent reading?
Redwall is always open, its tables laden, to you and any of good heart.

I guess I'm in.... I think I could read one in... about a week.
LateRose is locked up in Martin's heart, and there she's bound to stay.

Wot Wot!

I read Rogue Crew in a couple of days, started on Loamhedge last week, and now I'm on Rakkety Tam.  I'm lucky enough to be only halfway through the series, and I really shouldn't read too fast, because what happens when I'm finished? Oh, yeah, start over again!

Just six more go ( and I stopped reading  chronologically after Legend of Luke...as in publishing date...)
All you cowards of the land and flotsam of the sea
Who murder, pillage, loot whene'er  you please
There's a Long Patrol a waitin', we'll greet you cheerfully,
You'll hear us cry 'Eulalia' on the breeze.
