When I was in college, I started reading the Redwall novels by Brain Jacques. I know that I was reading below my reading level, but to say that I had read Watership Down at a very impressionable age would be an understatement. So, give me animals doing human things or close to, and I will at least...
Admittedly I have not read the previous four volumes but a synopsis at the beginning explains a lot. This volume is basically one long battle as the templars (with help from cats and owls) take back the kingdom from the rats, weasels and bats. There are a lot of characters and I didn't feel the need...
It was just OK for me. I don't think I'm going to run out and read the rest of the series, or re-read the original books.
