Eulalia!

The Long Patrol is a gripping tale about a young hare and his journey to join the famed Long Patrol of Salamendestron. This recording includes music when transitioning chapters and all the ballads have accompanied music which adds depth to the story. Brian Jaques and his wonderful cast breathe life into this unforgettable tale.

My personal favorite of the series

Not everyone seems to think so, but this one is my favorite for the whole Redwall series. It covers a more serious theme than usual, keeps a lot of humor around it, and has some very heroic moments by different characters.

Spectacular!

This has been my favorite Redwall book ever since first picking it up. Listening to a full cast read the story and sing the songs was like experiencing the story for the first time all over again!

Favorite song: The Long Patrol Anthem
"But the hares o' the Long Patrol, my lads, stout hearts they walk with thee!"

Another Fun Episode in the Redwall Series

Where does The Long Patrol rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The Long Patrol was a fun story to listen to. It has a cast reading the various speaking roles as well as being narrated by the author. It was one of the better books I have listened to recently.

What did you like best about this story?

For long-time Redwall fans, this story involved characters from all areas of Mossflower: Hares, otters, shrews, Badgers, and Redwallers. It was a story of coming of age for the main character. It had adventure, celebrations, and the bad guys were really bad but buffoonish. It was later than Redwall in Redwall's timeline, but it had some aspects that went back to the Mossflower story, which was fun because it recalled that book for me.

Have you listened to any of Brian Jacques’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This is about the 7th Brian Jacque's performance I have listened to. They are all good, and this one was as well.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

The Long Patrol: A Coming of Age for a Young Hare

Any additional comments?

The Redwall books are clever. They are written in a style that is reminiscent of Tolkien, with virtuous heroes, clumsy villains, poems and songs.

A childhood favorite

I really loved this story. Redwall is not complicated by any means, but the characters are always interesting and the minor mysteries are fun to solve along with them.

That said, the production if this book could have been better. I truly enjoyed Brian Jacques as the narrator as well as the rest of the cast. But the places where characters start to sing or speak together are almost incomprehensible. This might be solved by having the book in front of you, but that kind of defeats the purpose of an audiobook.
