"Mathias cut a comical figure as he hobbled his way along the cloisters, with his large
sandals flip-flopping and his tail peeping from beneath the baggy folds of an oversized novice's habit..." (from the first line)When Mariel is rescued from the sea and brought to Redwall Abbey, she sets out with three fearless Mossflower companions to track down Gabool and avenge her father.
Annotation:
It seems as if nothing can save the animals holed up in Redwall Abbey from the siege of the evil one-eyed rat Cluny and his wicked band. Matthias, a young novice at the Abbey, vows to find the legendary sword of Martin the Warrior, founder of the Abbey, and use it against Cluny. On his quest to find the sword, Matthias befriends many animals, and these friendships, along with the sword, help Matthias triumph over the evil Cluny and bring peace to the Abbey.
