Publisher Description

A shadow has fallen on the shore of the Eastern sea, a shadow called Marshank. In this cold stone fortress a stoat named Badrang holds dozens of innocent creatures as slaves, part of his scheme to build an empire where he will rule as unquestioned tyrant. Among those slaves is a mouse named Martin who has a warrior's heart, and a burning desire for freedom—freedom not only for himself, but for all of Badrang's victims. There is no risk he will not take, no battle he will not fight, to end the stoat's evil reign, and in the process regain the sword of his father, Luke the Warrior—the sword that Badrang stole from him when he was but a lad. Once again master storyteller Brian Jacques has crafted an epic adventure and filled it to the bursting point with unforgettable characters, including villains so hilariously evil you'll barely be able to keep from hissing at them, and loveable woodland creatures so brave you'll want to stand and cheer as they fight for their freedom.

"Marvelous! Read by the author and a full cast of colorful characters, whose voices brought their already vivid personalities to life. I love how Brian Jacques told real stories of heroic valor and war and strife and suffering, but made them accessible to children as well as adults by using animals instead of humans. Loved it."

    " I started reading this book and decided that the audiobook would be better because of the strange accents. I absolutely detest reading dialogue with accents because it slows me down. So the audiobook was better in that regard, but evidently I'm not a Brian Jacques fan. I know he's popular and a genius with animal fantasies, but I wasn't entertained. The full cast production was entertaining, but I'm just not sure why I couldn't wait for the book to end. There have been animal fantasies that I have loved--Fire Bringer by David Clement-Davies is the first one that comes to mind. I did love the evil character Badrang--he made me smile.... "

    " This book was alright,the writting was very good and creative, but I just wasn't really all that motivated to see what happened in the rest of the book. And I know you are probably wondering why I started on around the sixth book, but I don't why. I was really hoping I could give it a two and a half star, but I decided to be nice. But if you like thrills, castles and rodents, it would be good (I personally have a bias because I actually HATE rodents but...). "
