Your least favourite Redwall book

[Skalrag of Marshank]

I didn't enjoy Loamhedge. I'm sorry, it was just so BORING.

[Tiria Wildlough]

Taria how can you hate Dayna he is Awesome

The one complaint I've seen against Deyna is that he shifts from bad to good in an instant, or rather, shows no signs of ever being bad.

he never was really bad he never killed anyone besides vermin i think in his heart he always was GOOD

But...he lived with vermin almost all his life, with no memory of anything else, and yet he was still good in his heart. No one is immune to bad teaching. If I was taught to be a stone-cold killer for half my life, I would end up one.

[Lilly of Redwall]

the ones i dislike are:
Outcast of Redwall
Taggerung
Lord Brocktree

[rakkety tam]

flat out taggerung hate the book worst book ever i dont know what is about it i just hate it either that or i dislike it a ton

[Lutra]

I recall not liking Loamhedge....not necessarily because of the handicapped hare in the wheelchair who could not walk, I think the plot was just dull, and that's where I stopped reading Redwall.  I think I was just too disappointed with how it came out to try the next book.  Maybe a re-read will shed different light on it, but I will remember Loamhedge as the reason I stopped reading Redwall back some years ago.

[Plugg Firetail]

You stopped reading redwall.(gasp)

[Lutra]

^ Yes I did.  Depending on which topics you open here, I've talked about my liking for earlier books, and my disdain for the Redwall formula of predictability and it eventually just reached a point I didn't want to continue purchasing the books.  I think I own about half the books, and only read maybe two more that I never went out and bought (Loamhedge being one of them).  I read Rogue Crew on recommendations that it was different and more grusome than previous entries, but that a borrowed book from a library.

So yeah, I definitely stopped.  I reread the older ones, but some like Rakkety Tam, I've not bothered to check out.

[Lily]

^ Rakkety Tam is worth checking out, in my opinion. I thought it was a step above the other newer ones.

*sighs*
Not everyone can love everything. I for one love Sable Quean. I know most people don't, but I do for the fact that it has Vilaya. I would be very much like Vilaya if I were evil. Wait, I am kinda evil...
Anyways, I would give you a sympathetic hug, Lutra, but instead I'll give light punch on your shoulder. *punch!* And I'll go and feel sorry for you.

Outcast of Redwall was... Well, I liked Sunflash and Skarlath immensely, and I grew greatly fond of all of the woodlanders and rooted for them in the book. It's funny when I say that because I end up rooting for the vermin and the major villain. I absolutely HATED Swartt and Veil, the former because he didn't do much villainy (for example, Cluny had one of his hordebeasts run over by a horse; Slagar beat the ever lovin' snot out of dibbuns; Tsarmina blamed her brother for their father's death even though she was the one that poisoned Verdauga; Gabool has a habit of placing knives behind draperies and has an angry pet scorpion in a covered pit; etc ect.) except poisoning which is just SOOO creative and original!
Veil...  There is no excuse for attempted murder of a beast who, what, tweaked his ear? I just could never get over that fact, and thus could not like his character.

I'm somewhat tied between Loamhedge and Doomwyte.

I liked The Sable Quean for Vilaya, too. Nice to see a main female villain besides Tsarmina...

[Flandor]

Ugh Eulalia!.  I hated the badgers in that book, they were way too perfect and annoying.  Didn't like that one much at all, but Doomwyte was also not very good.

I think Brian was simply running short of fresh ideas towards the end.  In Rogue Crew all the characters names felt made-up and the Redwallers seemed actually quite mean in comparison to earlier books (I mean, in Redwall, Abbot Mortimer could barely stand to see the rats hurt).  But Rogue Crew had a scary villain and a strong story.

But in terms of story and everything Eulalia was worst.  I actually quite liked Loamhedge for the most part, unlike everyone else it seems.  Bragoon and Saro were just awesome!

[Mad Maudie]

i loved
Loamhedge
Sable queen
Taggerung
Outcast of redwall
i did not like
Rouge crew
Doomwryte
triss
Eulalia was not bad but not very good but i think i am going to read some of them over  

[Taggerung The Otter]

So, which one is it? Mine is definitely Taggerung. You can post which one you don't like, and why you don't like it.
I don't like Taggerung because there isn't a proper main villain, there are no good battles, and it is pretty sad. And I'm sorry to say that Deyna is one of my least favourite characters.

awww man

[hens162]

For me it would be Lord Brocktree
