The Long Patrol is the tenth book in Brian Jacques's
Redwall series, published in 1997. It takes place after The Pearls
of Lutra and before Marlfox.
Plot
At the start of the novel, Tammo, a young hare, escapes from his family's
camp in the far North to go join the Long Patrol, a regiment of hares
from the mountain fortress of Salamandastron. He is accompanied by
Russa Nodrey, who is a wondering female squirrel who wields a powerful
hardwood stick. In Redwall, things aren't going too well after the
south wall is discovered to be collapsing. Meanwhile, Damug Warfang
and his army of a thousand evil Rapscallions have landed on the south
coast and are advancing towards Redwall,after hearing that Redwall
is vulnerable to attack since its south wall is collapsing. The leaders
at Redwall and Salamandastron have to come up with a daring plan to
draw the army away from Redwall and defeat them in an epic battle,
and Tammo and his newfound friends are caught in the middle of the
largest battle Mossflower Country has ever seen.
