This one pissed me off. I liked it more when I was younger, but after rereading it, I can't ignore some of its serious flaws. An orphaned ferret baby Veil is raised by "kind" Redwallers who emotionally abuse him and constantly discriminate against him, then kick him out. His adopted mother, the only mouse who didn't hate him, follows him as he sets out to find his father, the evil warlord Swartt Sixclaw, who abandoned him. He finds his father, the mouse finds them, the Swartt throws a spear atI was not really sad to give this to my sister as part of the payment for her Lord of the Rings box set, because this is definitely my least favorite redwall book!
This book, more than any of the seven that precede it in the Redwall series, differs significantly in feel from the type of story that Brian Jacques usually tells. Though Outcast of Redwall is the third book to contain the name of the famous Mossflower Woods abbey in its title, surprisingly little of the action takes place at Redwall. Even in the fifth Redwall book, Salamandastron, about half of the story happens within the confines of Redwall Abbey, but in this book, curiously, much more of
I read this book back in middle school (10+ years ago) I have been searching for it for the last 5+ years as I have thought about it numerous times through out the years! That I may say makes for a GREAT book, if 10 years down the line not only do you remember the book, but feverishly search for it so you may read it again!

This was another great story. Great action and happy as well as sad moments. Listened to the audiobook and loved the reading for it
The main problem I have with Jacques's books is the fact that the difference between "good guys" and "bad guys" is based on their species. This divide might work if the books were written for little kids, who need some sort of distinction between good/bad, but the stories are incredibly long and incredibly violent. This means that most of the readers are teens and adults... who are old enough to notice that certain species being "good" and others being "bad" is, well, flat-out racist. The
Finally, fans of Redwall get to know more about the badgers of Salamandastron. A young badger is held captive by an evil ferret, Swartt Sixclaw. Coincidence and bad weather brings the hawk, Skarlath to the camp of Sixclaw. The badger and Skarlath help each other escape, but not before the badger seriously wounds the ferret warlord. Skarlath names the badger Sunflash, and together they journey through Mossflower, helping those in need and making friends along the way. But Swartt Sixclaw has vowed
