Salamandastron, by Brian Jacques, is another book in his Redwall series, and well worth the read. One of the better books he has written, I think, it tells the story of Samkim and Arula, a squirrel and mole friend who must return Martin’s sword to the peaceful Redwall Abbey. Together, Samkim and Arula meet with others, such as Mara the badger maid and Pikkle the hare, escaped from Salamandastron. But when danger attacks Salamandastron in the form of Ferahgo the Assassin and the fever hits Redwall, can the heroes save everyone and their beloved homes?

I haven’t read a fiction book in a while, it seems, but Castaways of the Flying Dutchman is definitely a good one to get me going again! In this tale, Bryan Jacques weaves a story of a young boy named Neb, and his dog Den, both slaves on the ship the Flying Dutchman. It’s an entertaining read that held me until the very end.
