The Long Patrol by Brian Jacques
4.0
This one was my favorite as a kid. Mostly because it focuses on the rabbits.
But the novel stands out from the other novels not for its originality but because by the time he's got to a 10th novel Brian Jacques has it well figured out. The world is built and we can bask in it. We can simply let the characters and events play out as we know they will.
I know many people hate repetition but I like the steadiness of the rhythm. My least favorite Redwall books were the ones that spent the most time away from Redwall and Salamandastron.
