The Legend of Luke (Redwall Book 12)

Product Description

In this twelfth book of the masterful Redwall epic, storyteller Brian Jacques goes back in time to the days before Redwall, revealing with dramatic poignancy the legend of the first of the magnificent Redwall warriors–Luke, father of Martin.

Joined by Trimp the Hedgehog, Dinny Foremole, and Gonff–the ever-mischievous Prince of Mousethieves–it is that legend Martin hopes to discover when he embarks on a perilous journey to the northland shore, where his father abandoned him as a child.

There, within the carcass of a great red ship–broken in half and wedged high up between pillars of stone–he finally uncovers what he has been searching for: the true story of the evil pirate stoat, Vilu Daskar, and the valiant warrior who pursued him relentlessly over the high seas, seeking to destroy Vilu at all costs, even if it meant deserting his only son.

“Mice are my heroes because, like children, mice are little and have to learn to be courageous and use their wits.” –Brian Jacques
