After reading The Pearls of Lutra by Brian Jacques I was a little sad, in the series of books I have it is the second to the last. I knew there were many books I had still yet to read, so it wasn’t anything like when I put down, what I thought was, my last Asimov novel.
This story follows Tansy and Martin’s namesake, the grandson of Matthias the Warrior. Tansy finds the remains of a Redwall visitor and gets busy solving riddles to find the pearls so they can pay the ransom for their friends Abbot Durral and Viola. Martin and friends go to rescue them from the Ublaz from the far away Isle of Sampetra.
A nice balance of battle and riddles to fill the day, and beautiful poems and songs written, spoken and sung.
