From Amazon.com

Brian Jacques and his tremendous Redwall books never cease to amaze: this is the 12th book in a series that just gets better and better. This time, the interweaving story of a father and a son is told in three parts, starting with a visit to Redwall Abbey by a young hedgehog maid who, by singing a half-remembered song recounting the adventures of a warrior called Luke, begins to unlock some of the mysteries behind the Abbey's early years.

As deftly executed as all the other Redwall books, The Legend of Luke is a truly magnificent, rampaging, rip-roaring adventure story that gives the heart and mind the kind of aerobic workout normally reserved for a sprint round a playing field. From the very first page the readers know they're in for a treat, and as Jacques skillfully builds his story, cleverly interweaving intricate, imaginative detail with a vast cast of incredible characters who each play a vital role in the unfurling of the tale, there can be no doubt that he is still the true master of his genre.

Excellent as a stand-alone read for anyone new to Redwall, and even better as part of the amazing saga that has captured the imagination of millions since its inception, The Legend of Luke is an absolute must-read for anyone--young or old--who likes their fiction fast and fantastical. This story will certainly leave them breathless for more. --Susan Harrison



From School Library Journal

Grade 5 Up-The saga continues as Martin, the warrior mouse, leaves Redwall Abbey on a quest to find out what happened to his parents, whom he can barely remember. He adds to his original party of Gonff, the mouse; Dinny, the mole; and Trimp, the hedgehog as he travels along. Among the most memorable characters on the journey are an outspoken baby squirrel and a half-crazed renegade otter who is redeemed by the young squirrel's innocent friendship. Eventually, Martin finds two elderly friends, the mouse, Vurg, and the rabbit, Beau, who sailed with his father on his final journey. These old shipmates share the story of how Luke the Warrior and the brave squirrel Ranguvar Foeseeker gave their lives to avenge the death of Martin's mother and rid the seas of the wicked pirate stoat, Vilu Daskar. Readers who have enjoyed the series on land will find this seafaring addition equally fast paced. The action is interspersed with the broad humor, rustic speech, and delicious vegetarian meals shared by the good-natured animal friends. Be aware, however, that the story of Luke the Warrior, told as a tale within a tale, is one of cruelty, revenge, and the ultimate self-sacrifice. Phonetic spelling of the various animals' dialects, used both in conversation and in the many songs, may act as a barrier to some readers. This 12th title in the series will have the most appeal where the previous books have a following.

4.0étoiles sur 5 This book is Fantastic- an excelent read, Déc 8 2003

This review is from: Legend Of Luke (Paperback)
The roaring author Brian Jacques has successfully written another brilliant novel. The Legend of Luke is another grand addition to the Redwall series, with the same action and adventure. The story is fun filled, vibrant, and "clench your seat" insane.
The adventure starts with the hero of the story, Martin the Warrior, at Redwall Abbey. Redwall is a sanctuary in the middle of Mossflower forest where all creatures of a good heart can find safety. A roaming hedgehog named Trimp finds the abbey and isallowed to find shelter within the walls. While working Trimp sings a song that triggers Martin's memories of his life as a child. Martin and friends travel through many obstacles to find Martin's father, Luke. They find a ship lodged in between walls of a large crevasse. In the ship is an ancient hare who tells Martin and his friends about the life of Luke.
Brian Jacques is very descriptive in his writing, but keeps the reader wanting more. An example of this would be "Gonff indicated a spot on the butter-coloured meadow-cream, between a candied chestnut and a honey preserved rose petal."
I personally loved how he flowed his words together like a river of language. The story kept me sitting on the edge of my seat and wanting more. Instead of playing my gameboy or going outside to play, I found myself nestled in my chair reading this book. I highly suggest that you read this book. I have also met Brian Jacques and it was very interesting to listen to what he had to say. He told a story right from the top of his head, that was rather good. This book is rather enjoyable and I suggest the person who reads this to read the book.

2.0étoiles sur 5 One of the worst, Nov. 28 2003
Par Un client
This review is from: Legend Of Luke (Paperback)
I can't believe I actually liked Brian Jacques' work once!
His views on good and evil are completely simpleminded and his philosophy is one that will not work in the real world.
Rats, ferrets, weasels, and other "vermin types are "bad guys", so you can kill them without a thougt. Oh, and they're stupid as well, and so easy to slay the whole tale seems for nothing.
Mice, Squirrels, and cute little critters are "good guys", so if one of them gets killed everyone mourns.
Not with Jacques' bad guys, as a weasel's dead body is something Redwallers wouldn't mind seeing.
No grey area. I've always thought this series rubbish, ever since "Outcast of Redwall" came out. Stop after book 7,"The Bellmaker". You won't regret it.
Either I can't stand Jacques' black-and-white views on good and evil, the series has gone downhill, or it was terrible in the first place, but I didn't realize it.
The characterization is poor and unbelievable.
The plotline is driven by a protagonist's desire for revenge.
The musical interludes and parts where characters showed off their juggling tricks were annoying. They were what marred these books in the first place!
