“The Bellmaker” by Brian Jacques is part of his Redwall series, which kinda raised me. It’s amazing how much of this I remember.

Fuck. Me. Grabbing the audio immediately this just brought me right back to reading these under the blankets at night.

I have no idea how I had never heard of Redwall until last year when Magic's Bloomburrow set released. I grew up watching the Secret of NIMH, reading the comic, Redwall should have been the next logical step... but I missed it.

I also missed out on Redwall... I knew of it's existence, but somehow never got around to reading it... Until this year. I'm well into my 30's but I have enjoyed it so far! Definitely worth the read.

☝️ This. Exactly. Is it a fantastical tale catered to kids? Sure. It’s also phenomenal, discussing themes from the history of the British Isles. Check out this intro from another of his books in this series:

I'm in my 30s and I just listened to this book for the first time last year. These are excellent adventure stories!

I watched the show and then read the books in grade 7...my son is now obsessed with them in grade 1! They have contributed so much to his drive to read. Such a fantastic series.

I haven’t seen the show yet, but the audiobooks are amazing!

Red wall was awesome I’d hoped to pass my books along to the next generation to enjoy, but Print media is for old people now. I guess.

Why the fuck is the att created by chatgpt is this is an actual novel?

Fan art is a huge part of the fandom. I like this. Please remove your entire fist from my ass, you jerk.

True! Although, for my own enjoyment I could see myself going to the library just to relive the entire experience. Maybe I’d even read it before the sun came up, just to remember what it was like to dread and fear my mother’s company. 😂

This looks like a great series. With regards to the audio books, do I want the older one with full cast or the newer recording ?
