KvP:
In seventh grade I read about 18 of his Redwall books in the span of a Summer. I thought it was super cool that there was a clear timeline and an interconnectedness between the books in his series. I always meant to come back and read his more recent entries but somehow it never happened. RIP.

schimmy:
Shit. His books were easily the best ones I read as a kid.

smack that isaiah:
Agreed.  I remember my librarian aunt gave me the first three Redwall books (ordered by chronological release date, not plot timeline) when I was young and got hooked.  I read up until the book Triss came out in hardback. 
I remember Martin the Warrior was my favorite book (Felldoh's heroic sacrifice left me in tears (and, honestly I feel a bit of tears at the corner of my eyes remembering that plot from so very long ago)) and Mattimeo gave me the heebie-jeebies.

axerton:
I read maybe half a dozen of these when I was a kid, only remember the most vague and disjointed details. I think this weekend when I visit my parents place I'll dig one of them out and reread it.

TheFuriousWombat:
I probably read the first 12 or 15 of these books in elementary school and loved the hell of every word. It's especially sad when you consider where popular children's literature has gone since.
