I am thinking about starting this series but have a question to those that have read it. What would be the best way to read the series chronological order or how they were published? Can you follow the story if you go the publish route?? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

This preserves the original order of discovery intended by the author. Reading out of order may diminish the pleasure of discovery by answering questions before the reader has a chance to ask them. For example, reading in chronological order would highlight the activity of Martin the Warrior, without giving the reader the chance to wonder who he was and why he was venerated in the original Redwall. The prequels also double-back and develop some of the meaning in books published earlier that take place later in time, refreshing the read and creating continuity.

Yes, as other people have answered, this requires the reader to be active and remember details as the timeline skips around, but it's worth it if the author is intentional in how he develops his world.(less)

The Redwall animals are a little more like people than the Warrior cats, with their homes, farms, feasts, weapons, and armor. Redwall also has less of a political/intrigue/drama feel than Warriors, because most of the conflict is between good guys and bad guys, rather than between the rival cat tribes with their different agendas.(less)

I never read these in middle school but recently saw Netflix is making a series based on these. I like to read the books first if possible but was wondering if these were more for kids or if adults enjoy them too?

The …m´Ç°ù±ðHonestly, it really depends on you as a person. I think it's a pretty good novel plot-wise if you're interested in just reading it for the story. The narration and the storyline make the novel seem like a classic hero story and I 100% see this as a good family movie. As for reading it... I didn't particularly like some factors of this book. It is perfect for kids but... as an adult reading I wish there was more to the characters. The characters felt kind of flat. It's a very "cartoonish" kind of book. I recommend checking out my review for a more explanation on why kids would enjoy this more than older readers(less)

What age is this book aimed towards? Is it a good book?
Classical Foundations Literary Society Amazing book. It was read out loud to me when I was 10, but I read above my age. Have read it at least 10 times since.
