Synopsis
The nineteenth book in the series ranges from the frozen Northern Isles to the fortress of Salamandastron and the woodlands around Redwall Abbey. Its central figure is the young badger Gorath, kidnapped by the fox captain Vizka Longtooth and driven by a personal vendetta against those who killed his grandparents, who must escape his captors to claim his prophesied role as a Badger Lord. Alongside him, the hare "Mad" Maudie sets out on a mission to find the destined badger, while Orkwil Prink, a hedgehog thief seeking redemption, becomes entangled in the unfolding events. Their separate paths draw together as rival vermin forces threaten Redwall Abbey, building toward a larger confrontation that will shape Gorath's future among the woodland creatures.

Notes
- From the series record (Redwall): Brian Jacques's 22-novel high-fantasy sequence of anthropomorphic animals centered on Redwall Abbey, one continuous author-written saga (1986-2011; Jacques died shortly after The Rogue Crew's publication, completing the series). Listed here in original publication order; internal chronology deliberately left unpopulated -- the series' own well-documented publication-vs-internal-chronology divergence (e.g. Mossflower and Martin the Warrior are set generations before Redwall itself) is stated in prose per the same convention already applied to Valdemar's Last Herald-Mage set. Registered per the genre-boundary-transparency convention (talking-animal fantasy, same treatment already extended to Pern's dragons) -- this canon's marketing/critical consensus treats Redwall unambiguously as fantasy, not an animal fable in the Watership Down sense. No independently confirmable award history found.
Neighbouring works
Publication order and internal chronology are tracked as two separate orderings and are never conflated: a book's place in one says nothing about its place in the other.
