I think this was Brian's masterpiece. It certainly was the best set of supernatural/historical fiction I've ever read... Twas a shame that Serafina died, though. Poor Ben. Brian, may he rest in peace, was the one author who got me started reading...

Brian got me reading too. I think it's sad that Ben will most likely never see serafina again, unless someone kills him. So wait, if Ben was stabbed through the heart, would he still live?

Neb and den and Ben and Ned are the best team EVER!

I like how they completely messed up their names. Shortened them, then turned them inside out.

I never gathered he could die, because the angel always forced Ben and Ned to move on to others who needed help.  I also felt it was to prevent suspicion that there was something unusual about him (the fact he did not age).

Mad Maudie

my second favorite series besides Redwall the first one is my favorite   
Cause you are the piece of me I wish I didn't need
Chasing relentlessly and I don't know why
If our love's tragedy why are you my remedy?
If our love's insanity why are you my clarity?
Why are you my clarity?

I really liked this series. Castaways of the Flying Dutchman was my favorite.
I come from the place of Redwall,
             I am a dangerous foe,
I am a Warrior Maid,
                   I am...

Rimant the Warrior

I agree with Tammo.  I am so sad that Brian was not able to write anymore books in this series. :'(  It was a very good well done book series and I enjoyed it when I actually started reading it.  It took my sister several attempts to get me to read that series.  I was so absorbed by Redwall that I did not want to read anything else even books written by the same author.

I find them very hard to read compared to Redwall. I've read a bit of the first and a bit of the last.

I think if you went long enough and enough books in the series were written, you'd be stuck with another Redwall formula of predictability, so maybe it was good that Mr. Jacques chose not to focus a lot of writing time on this series to make each story a bit more unique and less predictable.  :)

I actually came close to having a crush on Ben. Sigh...yet another made-up book character that I have fallen in love with.

LOL Funny how that works, huh?
Living in peace, aye many a season,
Calm in life and sound in reason,,
'Til evil arrives, a wicked horde,
Driving a warrior to pick up his sword,
The challenger rings then, straight and fair,
Justice is with us, beware. Beware!
