I bought so many Redwall books, right up until they started losing it slightly (the same all rats/foxes/weasels are EVIL>:(! without nuance got old as I got old. The Taggerung was the worst. Of course a child brought up by a warlord would be automatically believe what his adoptive family was doing was evil, without any self doubt or self examination just because he was an otter. At least in Outcast of Redwall Veil had the entire Abbey waiting for him to screw up because of his species.)
The early ones were the best, with Redwall right there with Watership Down in the genre of 'Books with violence and murder and blood. You know, for kids!'
