The Bellmaker (Redwall, #7)

All of the swashbuckling adventure that made Mariel of Redwall so much fun, plus a bit of the moral complexity and friendship-depth that made Outcast of Redwall so compelling.
In my opinion, only the first 8 Redwall books published are worth reading. I pressed hopefully on through Lord Brocktree (#13), but after Outcast each new title felt like a rehash of what Jacques had already written. I've no idea if any of the later stories rose to new originalities.

I enjoyed Pearls of Lutra, The Long Patrol, and Rakkety Tam (#9-10, #17), and I have a soft spot for Taggerung (#14). I thought The Sable Quean (#21) was the most unique and had the best villain of the latter half of the series.

That's good to know, thanks! If I do a nostalgia tour through the series, I'll try those as well.
