Eulalia! Published in 2007 by Brian Jacques, Philomel Books

"Across the seas comes Vizka Longtooth, with a scurrilous crew of Sea Raiders bound for plunder and conquest. Aboard, a young badger lies captive. The aged Badger Lord of Salamandastron sends forth a hare-maid, questing for his successor. A young thief is exiled from Redwall. A Brownrat chieftain, with his savage horde, ravages Mossflower Country. The fate of all these creatures, both good and evil, is caught up in this saga of war and destiny.

Over the cold Nrothern Isles, across the heaving seas, sweeping through forest and plain, from the legendary badger mountain to the ancient stones of Redwall Abbey, the warcry thunders out. . .

Eulaliiiiiiaaaaa!"

This book is the first and only book in which the badger (In this book, Gorath) takes out his arch-nemeses (Vizka Longtooth) without suffering from a fit of Bloodwrath. Admittedly, Gorath had great attacks of the Bloodwrath, some of the worst fits of all badgers. But, he forces himself to break free from those chains in order to protect his friends and himself. Even when it is only his enemy and himself, he kills Vizka without going completely mad. Brian Jacques added an interesting new twist to the Redwall series in this book.

High Rhulain, Published in 2005 by Brian Jacques, Philomel Books

Young Tiria Wildlough is and ottermaid touched by the paw of destiny. Her epic adventures take her on a journey from Redwall Abbey across the Great Western Sea, to the mysterious Green Isle. There she must fulfill and ancient prophecy and gain her inheritance.

Green Isle is home to the otterclans, but they are beset by dangers from the wildcat chieftain Riggu Felis and his catgaurd slave masters.  Aided by two birds and a platoon of Long Patrol Hares, Tiria joins forces with the outlaw leader of the otterclans in a battle that will test all their courage and skill.

In the true tradition of Redwall comes a new saga full of feasts and fighting, riddles and quests, and a heroine you're not likely to forget as she strives to become the chosen one--the High Rhulain!

This 18th book of the Redwall series, written by Brian Jacques, is one of the few books in which the main character (Tiria the otter)  finds out that she is a ruler, more precisely a queen, and even more precisely the High Rhulain, the queen of all otters on Green Isle, which is currently ruled by vicious wildcats. It might be the only one, excluding books like Lord Brocktree, in which a badger receives the lordship of Salamandastron when his successor dies. This book is also one of the several books in which the good creatures take a long voyage. I like how Brian added common things into this part of book., like seasickness. It really improves the plot. This also is a great Redwall book.

Rakkety Tam, Published in 2004 by Brian Jacques, Philomel Books

"From beyond the cold northern seas and lands of ice, a terrifying beast arrives on the shores of Mossflower Country: Gulo the Savage! With his crew of white-furred vermin, this creature out of a nightmare comes to murder his brother and seize the fabled Walking Stone. Nobeast is safe from the mighty Gulo, who feasts on the flesh of his enemies.

But something stands between Gulo and what he seeks: the ancient Abbey of Redwall. Who will come to the aid of Abbot Humble and his peaceful Woodlanders? The mercenary warrior from the borders, Rakkety Tam Macburl, that's who! With his mate Wild Doogey Plumm, the brave squirrel sets forth on a quest to rescue two kidnapped Redwall maidens, and joins forces with one hundred perilous hares from the Long Patrol. Together they face a battle that ranges far over the plains, streams and woodlands of Mossflower in this epic tale of war, courage and comradeship.

Hark to the battlecries: Redwaaaaaaal! Eulaliiiiiaaaa! Haway the Braaaaaaw! "

This Tale from Redwall introduces some interesting elements. First of all, it introduces cannibalism. I am glad Brian Jacques incorporated it with the evil side only, and that the good creatures are thoroughly disgusted with that aspect of their foes. I wouldn't read these books if the good side embraced the idea of cannibalism. Second of all, it introduces the tortoise, or the "Walking Stone".  This just could be the only book in which that type of creature is found. I think that it is funny that all the creatures in this book think that it is a seat or a rock that moves around. I just can't get over the fact that they are so ignorant. Over all, this is a good book.
